“As a result, academic activities in the University have become paralysed. Consequently, the Vice-Chancellor, on behalf of the Senate has directed that the University be closed until further notice.

“Therefore, all students are hereby mandated to vacate the halls of residence with immediate effect. Postgraduate students who have paid their school fees and undergraduate students who are on an industrial attachment or practical training are exempted from this vacation notice. Such students are to visit the Office of the Dean of Students for accommodation arrangements.

“A new date of resumption will be communicated in due course. The management wishes our students a safe journey to their various destinations.”
