said letter reads as follows:<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;“SUSPENSION
OF DEPUTY RECTOR’S POSITION<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;Following
my announcement at the GIMPA Assembly on Tuesday, 16th December
2008, the Deputy Rector’s position is hereby suspended until we are able to
present a complete report to GIMPA Council and seek its mandate for a workable
organizational structure and procedures based on approved statutes.<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;Please
endeavour to hand over all affairs of the Deputy Rector’s office to the
Rector’s office effective Wednesday, 24th December 2008.&nbsp; It would be appreciated if you could mention
specific items that require urgent attention in your handing over notes”<o:p></o:p>Upon receipt of the above
stated letter, the applicant also wrote a letter dated 23rd December 2008 in
which he expressed himself in the following language:<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;Re
– Suspension of Deputy Rector’s Position<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;I
write to acknowledge receipt of your letter dated December 22, 2008 on the
above subject – matter.<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;I
am very surprised and disappointed by the content of your letter.&nbsp; This is because there is no basis for
it.&nbsp; The reason given is untenable.<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;Therefore I reject the letter and have
no intention to comply with it.<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;
