Suspensions at First Nations University criticized


The president of the First Nations University of Canada says he disagrees with the suspensions of three top officials.

FNUC President Eber Hampton says he has heard of allegations of financial mismanagement but hasn't seen any proof. He disagrees with the way the college board has initiated an external audit.

Board vice-chair Morley Watson suspended the three officials last week. No reason was given but he said it was necessary pending review of the college's finances.
