Dear Editor,
Not surprisingly Mr. Mustapha has now joined the fray. As he admits, he is in the same boat with Cox. There is not much that is said by Mustapha that is worthy of a response but like Cox, he too attempts a hoax on the public, if it is not a case of intellectual deficit. I will therefore expose him as well. I will not afford him and his ilk a free pass in the public media. In all that I have written on this matter, I have never questioned the decisions of the court. However, the existence of appeal courts does not cast aspersions on the judges at lower instances. What it does is to provide for dispelling of doubt about the humanly possible miscarriage of justice as has happened repeatedly.
What I have done and will continue to do here is to expose the wrong doings and crass dishonesty of Mustapha and his ilk and probably expose his intellectual deficit. Mustapha’s web cannot bear the weight of the lightest of spiders. I am not a party to UG’s legal action nor is the AG. UG has autonomy in determining its response to such matters. Mustapha’s nancy story about the AG and myself is even less that a figment of his mind. It is a concoction or crass display of ignorance.
With the passing of thirteen years, Mustapha still cannot come to understand that the issue has never been that Cox merely defaulted on his loan. As a consequence of his default, he was not granted subsequent loans. He simply did not pay his fees, like Mustapha, for the programme. It is therefore balderdash to bring any issue of loan defaulters into the equation. The fact of the matter is that the University has no role in the recovery of unpaid loans or in sanctioning defaulting borrowers.
Mustapha’s plot of linking the black actors (individuals and Government) in a plot against blacks therefore has no leg to stand on. There is no link. Alexander was in no position to pounce on loan defaulters as Mustapha either concocts or misrepresents. All those defaulters to whom Mustapha would have referred would have paid their fees and been in good standing with the University, but in default with the Ministry’s loan agency. Cox was in default with both. The University only acted on his default with the University.
No one could deny that if a student is required to present an examination pass as the requirement for entering an examination, and does not do so, but is still allowed to write the examination, it would have been either negligence, carelessness or collusion on the part of the relevant officials. I happen to know it was collusion. I am sure that Cox, Mustapha and their ilk know this as well, except that for them it is trivial.
Mustapha also repeats this more-than-fib that Cox had “two years more to repay.” Repay whom, may I ask? Repayment presupposes a loan. Well, Cox had no loan from the University, so any reference to time to repay has nothing to do with Cox’s indebtedness and payment to the University. The University clearly requires payment before examinations, latest. Cox like Mustapha had not paid. Mustapha’s attempt to pander to ethnicity is so baseless and transparent that there is no further need to reference it.
