Uchoyo Nixon lands the top position at Talaka College through an unusual turn of events—his only competitor oversleeps and misses the job interview.
Mysterious meetings with vague agendas expose Uchoyo’s unconventional leadership style. His ambitious travel plans take an unexpected turn. He discovers a non-existent college online and when he visits Brazil to benchmark from it, locals inform him it is fictional. He encounters similar challenges in Trinidad and Tobago. Uchoyo considers extreme measures, proposing to burn down the administration building hoping to get large insurance compensation. Fedha, the finance manager, saves the building by suggesting alternative revenue sources.
Uchoyo aims to boost revenue by engaging alumni and invites former students to a meeting on December 30th. He dismisses the significance of quorum, despite the few attendees. He unveils the alumni constitution to the attendees and informs them he will collect subscription fees on their behalf. The proposal to make alumni fees mandatory for new students sparks a heated debate within the governing council. Uchoyo sponsors the council to travel to Malaysia and Tioman island for a holiday. Hasidi faces the challenge of processing their visas, some of whom had never possessed passports. While there, they approve the proposal. Blowunie complains of exclusion from the travel, yet she was an important staff who audited expenditures. She threatens to audit the bogus trip and report to the ombudsman. Uchoyo learns about Blowunie’s plans. He instructs Fedha to fund Blowunie’s travel to the Zambezi River, where she almost drowns. Upon her return, she gifts Uchoyo a necktie, pants, and socks.
As Uchoyo successfully thwarts Blowunie’s threats to audit him, he travels to New York. The trip is for an international conference for college principals. He discovers it is a conference for gay activists. Mwongo and Blowunie conspire to disrupt Uchoyo’s activities. Upon his return from New York, he opens a regional campus in east Talaka. He claims the campus will bring services closer to people, but his true intention is to offer jobs to his close relatives and friends. When he opens the campus, he recruits more staff than the main campus. Students decline to study from an ill-equipped campus in hard to reach region. He threatens to cancel admissions for students who refuse to study at the regional campus. Uchoyo abolishes the end of first semester exams because of high student failure and classifies the Bachelor of Philosophy degree to encourage student reading. Only 10% pass the course, with a ninety percent failure rate. 60% of the 10% attain first class, while the rest obtain a pass degree.
Uchoyo faces internal revolt from Mwongo and Bayuuni. Mwongo often shares her secrets with Blowunie. Blowunie leaks the secrets to Uchoyo. Mwongo learns about it and successfully hires a hitman to kill Blowunie. Fedha provides money to Hasidi for a wreath and condolence card. He uses the money to buy his child a toy, falsely claiming it was stolen in a traffic jam.
The internal revolt spreads to the regional campus, with staff complaining of mistreatment. They write to Uchoyo, demanding secession. Uchoyo pleads in vain. At a staff reconciliation meeting, Uchoyo criticises Mwongo’s lack of credentials and unveils Bayuuni as the likely successor. Mwongo fatally strikes Bayuuni with an object, resulting in his death a week later. Judge Kabisi declares Mwongo not guilty because of insanity.
“Rules of College Management” is a thought-provoking novel that delves into the intricacies of leadership, morality, and the choices that shape the fate of a community caught in the crossfire of ambition and desperation.
