• STUDENT PETITION UNDERWAY TO STRIP HIM OF HIS TITLE BY SONAKSHI SHARMA
Joseph Ikebudu was one of the four Vice Presidents elected on Tuesday 28th February 2017 for the academic year 2017/18. With 522 votes, he sought off competition from other potential candidates wanting the role of VP for Marylebone including Helsio Perestrelo, whom received 427 of the votes, coming in second place. Joseph’s aims included greater co-operation with The Enterpreneurship Society to get students ‘to think outside the box’ at the Marylebone Campus, which is the hotspot for business studies at the University of Westminster.
Since the election however, Joseph has not fulfilled his duties and has been absent for all the new academic year but, been adamant that he will start soon. The Student’s Union has released a statement “Joseph Ikebudu has unfortunately not been able to commence working for the Students’ Union at this point. The UWSU are still working with Joseph Ikebudu to get him inducted and at work for his students at Marylebone campus as swiftly as possible. In Joseph’s absence, any Marylebone students who need support, guidance, or assistance from a Sabbatical
officer, please contact one of the other sabbaticals officers at sabbs@su.westminster.ac.uk . The UWSU understands that this may disappoint students at Marylebone, and we are working as an organisation to assist students in his absence.”
“STUDENTS CAN APPROACH ALL THE OTHER SABBS IN JOSEPH’S ABSENCE ” At Marylebone, there is a
petition underway to strip Joseph of his Vice President role in his absence. By UWSU rules, the petition needs 500 signatures to trigger a ‘revoke’ which will then subsequently need another 251 students to vote in favour of removing him. “I signed the petition to protest against his absence, we as students are expecting a response from him. ” said a Business Management student who wished to remain anonymous. Whilst there is a petition currently underway, Marylebone Campus remains with no Vice President.
