A report investigating Makerere Institute of Research [MISR] and Dr Stella Nyanzi, a research fellow at the same institute, who is also remembered for undressing after being locked out of her office by Prof. Mamdani was released today.
According to the report, the Committee observed that Dr Stella Nyanzi was not participating in Research at MISR. Further more, the report states that the disagreement between Mamdani and Nyanzi stemmed from the consistent demand by Prof Mamdani that Dr Nyanzi should teach which she defied continuously although it was in line with her terms of employment hence insubordination.
The report also recommends that Dr. Stella Nyanzi’s actions were of gross misconduct and should be subjected to disciplinary action.
The committee also found the Human Resource Manager guilty of complacency and failing to offer guidance. It [report] refuted claims that Prof. Mamdani gave office space to his wife Mira Nair of Mirabai Films since the committee didn’t find any evidence to that effect. The committee therefore has recommended that Stella Nyanzi be disciplined by Makerere disciplinary committee.
