“Management discussed the ongoing industrial action by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), which had now been extended by eight (8) weeks, at its meeting on Wednesday, March 16, 2022.

“As a result, the University’s academic activities have come to a halt.”

“As a result, on behalf of the Senate, the Vice-Chancellor has directed that the University be closed until further notice,” it read.

This vacation notice does not apply to post-graduate students who have paid their school fees or undergraduate students who are on industrial attachment or practical training, according to Faluyi.

“Such students should go to the Dean of Student Affairs’ office to make arrangements for housing.”

“A new resumption date will be announced as soon as possible.”

The release continued, “Management wishes our students a safe journey to their various destinations.”

According to the Nigerian News Agency (NAN), ASUU has extended its strike for another eight weeks, citing the government’s inability to meet its demands.
