HIGHLANDERS football star Gabriel Nyoni bowed out of the Student Representative Committee presidency contention last week after being found to have violated rules of a contest due for this coming Thursday.
These included accusations he threw a campaign well before candidates were allowed to start soliciting for votes.
Nyoni, a marketing student at the tertiary institution, had put up a spirited campaign to land the post.
Nyoni's close links with Zanu-PF has cost him his bid to be elected National University of Science Technology student leader.
Nyoni, an avowed admirer of President Robert Mugabe, is adamant his disqualification was an elaborate strategy by MDC aligned students to elbow him out of the competition he was confident on winning.
The Bosso star remains adamant President Mugabe is his inspiration.
"I cannot go against the source of power. He is my President, he is your President; he is everyone's President. How can I say my President is bad?" he said.
