The school disciplinary committee said in a suspension letter dated February 1, that Solomon was caught with marijuana substance wrapped in papers like cigarette sticks and a lighter in his suitcase.
“He was involved in acts of indiscipline incompatible with his status as a student of this college… Kyagulanyi Sekayi Solomon is therefore suspended from the college for two weeks with effect from Tuesday 1st February, 2022, basing the resolution to zero tolerance for indiscipline,”SMACK Disciplinary Committee said in a suspension letter according to ChimpReports.
The Headmaster of SMACK, Brother Deodati Aliganyira confirmed Solomon’s suspension.
“Its true, that case was handled and we gave the boy, the last warning. He was found with drugs wrappedin papers like cigarettes and a lighter, ” Brother Aliganyira told the local news outlet.
