Following
ongoing Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, strike, the
University of Ibadan, UI, has terminated the first semester, shifting
activities left in the semester, especially examination, to second
semester.
According to the University, whatever was left in
first semester examination will hold in second semester, to bridge the
time wasted.
It was gathered that students mostly affected by the
decision were those under the institution’s Open Distance Learning,
ODL, centre.
The centre in a statement signed by its
communication officer, Dayo Olajide, said that a separate time table
would be designed for the outstanding papers.
He said: “All
outstanding 2016/2017 first semester examinations would concluded a week
before commencement of second semester examination.
“Apparently,
the basis for this new arrangement is to save learners the hassle of
coming down to complete examinations whenever the strike is called
off.’’
