UNIJOS To Resume After Last Year's Student's Protest, SUG Suspended. by obiZEAL(m): 8:08pm On Feb 13, 2015 |
On monday, 24th November 2014 students of University of Jos went on apeaceful protest to demand the removal of the #10,000 developemental levy and a review of some unjustifiable charges by the school management, but the peaceful protest took another dimension when officers of the Nigerian army opened fire on protesting students on the second day of the protest which led to the indefinite closure of the institution. The senate, in a communique made available to the students, announced the resumption of the institution on the 23rd of February 2015, with some rather unfair conditions. The communique is thus; UNIVERSITY OF JOS, JOS, NIGERIA (OFFICE OF THE REGISTRAR) PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT RESUMPTION OF ACADEMIC ACTIVITIES The University of Jos Management announces the resumption of the University for academic activities on Monday 23rd February, 2015. Consequently, the Second Semester Examinations which was disrupted by the Students’ demonstration of 24th and 25th November, 2014, will commence on Monday 23rd February, 2015. In accordance with the directive of Senate, the Hostels and Halls of Residence will be re- opened on Saturday 21st February, 2015. However, only Students who have complied with the conditions approved by Senate below will be allowed access into the Hostels and Halls of Residence or be eligible to sit for the Second Semester Examinations. Among these conditions are: 1. That all returning students must pay the sum of Twelve thousand Naira (N12,000.00) each online via https://mis.unijos.edu/fees and select “Surcharges”, which is to cover cost of damages and other expenses incurred by the University as a result of the demonstration. 2. That all returning students must sign an undertaking under Oath to be of good behavior during their remaining period as students of the University. This Form which can be accessed via www.unijos.edu.ng, should be completed and signed before a Commissioner of Oath in a competent Court of Law. Students entitled to Hostel Accommodation and who have fulfilled the above conditions may check-in as from Saturday 21st February, 2015. Second Semester Examinations will commence on Monday 23rd February 2015. All Students are, therefore, advised to take note and comply appropriately. Signed: Jilli-Dandam, D. ESQ.
