The communique revealed that the Current outgoing SRC President, refused to fully refund an amount of 2,500cedis to the student (name withheld in anonymity) who presented the issue to congress with a claim of being defrauded. A situation congress qualified and considered to be a violation of some sections of the SRC Constitution that consequently enables Congress to embark on an impeachment process. Still operating on Article 17 of the aforementioned constitution, the Vice President of the Council is to act as President of Council effective immediately. Though the impeachment process has already been completed and announced, the Chief Justice at the school court(where Emmanuel Nana Yaw Amoafo sought redress) has advised congress to give Emmanuel Nana Yaw Amoafo a fair hearing at the next congress sitting.
