After four days of closure, the Federal University Oye-Ekiti has directed its students to resume on Sunday.
The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the institution was shut on Tuesday following sustained protests by the students over the management’s “no school fees no examination’’ directive.
The acting Registrar of the institution, Oyeyimika Fasakin, however, announced on Friday in a statement that an agreement had been reached with representatives of the students on the 2017/2018 first semester examinations.
Fasakin, according to the statement, said the agreement was reached at meeting held on Wednesday.
The agreement, the statement said, include that students must resume on campus on Sunday while examinations would re-commence on Tuesday.
The statement said: “Only returning students who have paid 70 per cent and above of their fees will be allowed to write the examinations and the remaining 30 per cent balance of the fees should be paid before the close of Second Semester registration exercise.
“Only fresh students who have made full payment would be allowed to write the examinations.
“All returning students who have paid 70 per cent of their fees and missed their examination are to fill Make-Up examination forms at the Academic Affairs Office.
“Make–up examination will be conducted for those who missed it immediately after the First Semester examination.”
The acting-registrar enjoined the entire university community to comply with the resolutions.
