The Federal University of Technology Owerri (FUTO: futo.edu.ng) went on an Indefinite strike on the 17th of February after an aggressive protest took place in the school premises which led to the damage and theft of school properties. The cause of this action was due to the Increase in fees, and the condition students were subjected to.The resumption date had been announced twice but was postponed.

Just recently, through an official Memo, we were told resumption would be on 24th April 2016. Although I didn't like this development, people were already waiting eagerly for resumption. Yesterday, April 19th, 2017, another Senate meeting took place, and a new resumption date was Announced.

Year 1 students are to return on Monday, May 8, 2017.
Year 2 & 3 students will return to campus on Wednesday, May 10, 2017, while the Year 4 and 5 resumption date is Monday, May 15, 2017.

Also, there would be a proper clearance after the proof of Payment of school fees with additional ₦12,500 for damages per student. (Payment instructions would be published soon)

Note: The Harmattan Semester Examination would commence three (3) weeks after resumption.
