Following the unfortunate loss of lives of five (5) students to a tragic trailer accident at Felele city centre on Monday, 17th February 2025, students have barricaded the gate of the University despite magnanimous interventions from the State Government as well as frantic efforts and appeal by the University Management for calm.

Accordingly, arising from the advice of the State Security Agencies and to forestall further loss of lives, the Vice-Chancellor, after due consultation with Management, has decided on behalf of Senate, that the University (both campuses), be closed down INDEFINITELY within one hour of the release of this circular. Students are, therefore, to vacate the campuses on or before 12 noon, today Thursday, 20th February 2025. 

Pkease note for strict compliance.
