To: Mahmood Mamdani <mm1124@columbia.edu>
Dear Prof Mamdani,
All along I knew that by telling me to reapply, you were setting a
bait for me. If this is what you are using as evidence of my fresh
application, I am ready to meet you in the courts of law. But I can
assure you that I will not sue you Prof Mamdani for you are not the
bone who admits or cancels admissions.
Rather, I will sue the University and the respondents will be the
Academic Registrar and the Director Research and Graduate Studies Prof
Buyinza.
You will also explain when you cancelled my admission, how and where
you drew the powers to do so.
I am forwarding this email to the academic registrar, Prof Buyinza and
the vice chancellor.
Best,
Vincent Nuwagaba
