The management of the University of Ibadan on Monday shut the institution and directed the students to vacate the campus on or before 6 p.m.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the students had earlier taken to the streets of Ibadan in protest, alleging insensitivity on the part of the university management.

But the university’s Director of Communications and Publication, Olatunji Oladejo, told NAN that the closure became necessary in other to avert crisis.

He said that the Vice Chancellor, Prof. Idowu Olayinka, had convened an emergency meeting of the university Senate to review the circumstances surrounding the development.

“The University of Ibadan in its wisdom has decided to shift the examination earlier scheduled for June to July, 2017,” Oladejo said.

He said that undergraduate students are to resume back in school on July 17, while the post graduate students would continue to stay on campus for their research activities.

The students at a congress on Saturday passed a resolution to disrupt the forthcoming examinations if students were not provided with identity cards.

They also asked the authorities constitute the Students’ Welfare Board as well as allow use of cooking appliances that had been banned in the halls of residence.

Does this apply to people hawking Okpa and vulcanizers??


Thank you for your kind response

When students know that they will fail any forth coming exam, they cause trouble so that such exams will be postponed until they have perfected their dubbing tactics in preparation for the exam

But some simpletons will still come here and lament "Which way Nigeria" smh

Chai...

What is happening to universities in the SOUTH WEST??
From LAUTECH now UI.... Hope NUC, ASUU, FGN, and all relevant bodies look into these.

Now they will understand the power of SUG

UI students like aluta die.

It's expected, in as much as the student think protest is the way forward and not dialogue with constituted authorities. I only feel for the final year students who will never be a part of such protest because they know the school authority always win.

Ui's management is so poor ehn
