The Management of Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile Ife, Osun state, has announced the reopening the University, which was shut down in the wake of the students protests early this month.
This was contained in a statement the Public Relations Officer of the University, Abiodun Olarewaju, made available on Friday.
According to the statement, the decision to reopen the University was taken at an Emergency Meeting of the Senate, held on Friday, 29th October, 2022.
The release explained that students would come to residence on Friday, 5th November, 2021 and continue with their examinations on Saturday, 6th of November, 2021 in tandem with what was previously on ground.
“Parents and guardians are hereby advised to inform their children and wards, particularly those who have already finished their examinations to stay at home so that none of them would use the excuse of the reopening of the University to do something untoward.
“Vice Chancellor of the University, Professor Eyitope Ogunbodede, then charged the Students to be law abiding and not to engage in anything that could further elongate the session.”
The students had been writing their examinations on the 2nd October, 2021 before they embarked on protests over the death of one of them, which they blamed on carelessness of workers at the university’s health centre.
