MAJOR SET BACK AS PLATEAU CLUB CLOSES PENDING LEGAL RESOLUTIONS.

The Plateau Club 1921 has been closed down not as a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic. 
Results threating Peace and Security in the Club between a few members of the Club and the members of Board of Trustees (BOT), situation came to near crisis 24th January, 2021 when some  individuals insisted on holding an Emergency General Meeting to oust the Caretaker Committee which was duly constituted by the BOT. 
Sensing an intimidating foulplay arising against the Board of Trustees and members in support of the BOT, Caretaker Committee drafted security men to keep surveillance over the Club.

Following our further  investigations, it was discovered that while one of the two conflicting  factions  planned to hold an Emergency General Meeting in defiance of the Board of Trustees, the other faction was against it as according to them, was an affront against the Board of Trustees who had earlier set up a Caretaker Committee to oversee the activities of the Club as the Bored is the Apex decision making organ of the Club. 


Following this threat to peace, the Chairman of the Board of the Board of Trustees Arch Pam Dung Gyang after due consultations with the Board decided to temporarily close the Club pending the resolution of all pending legal matters against the Club. 

The Board cited the impending legal matter against the Club, the recent demise of a member of the Board of Trustees, and the bitter rancor between the different factions in the Club as a reason for the Closure. 

According to the chairman the Club will only be reopened when all legal matters against the Club and rancor in the club are resolved. 

It will be recalled that recently the properties of the Club were carted away by Court bailiffs as a result of debts owed to the former President of the Club Mr Chris Hassan.

These women shared the experience of losing their husbands to violent attacks. This was not a craft lesson, but the opening act of a profound tra...
