University Of Ibadan Announces School Resumption Date

Students of the University of Ibadan (UI) have been informed to return to the learning environment as academic activities would commence on Monday, October 24, 2022.

Naija News understands that the higher institution of learning announced the resumption schedule on Wednesday (today) in a statement signed by the Registrar and Secretary to Council of the varsity, Olubunmi Faluyi.

Faluyi said in the terse statement that the university’s Senate approved Monday, Oct. 24, 2022, as the resumption date at a meeting held on Oct.17, 2022

According to her, halls of residence would be reopened from Sunday, Oct.23, 2022, for students to occupy ahead of the commencement of academic activities.

“On behalf of the Council and Senate of the University, we wish our students journey mercies as they return to the campus,” Faluyi said.

Naija News reports that public universities in the country are reopening their hall of learning following an announcement by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) on Friday, October 14, 2022.

Recall that academic activities in public Universities across the country had been suspended following ASUU’s decision to embark on strike on the 14th of February, 2022.

ASUU, however, after eight months announced in a statement released last week Friday that the lingering strike is now suspended.
