The management of Obafemi Awolowo University has ordered students
to vacate the school premises. This was made known in a circular
issued at the end of an emergency senate meeting held yesterday over
the current crisis in the institution.
The circular which was signed by the registrar Dotun Awoyemi reads
“The Senate of Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife has approved that
the students of the University proceed on a mid-semester break with
effect from Monday, July 13, 2015. Consequently, all students are
advised to vacate the Halls of Residence. The date of resumption will
be announced later.”
It is believed that the sudden mid semester break is in connection with
the severe protest staged by the Non-Academic Staff of the University
over unpaid allowances.
It was learnt that the protest by NASU affected the supply of water
and electric power within the campus and have denied students the
benefits of such amenities which may have necessitated the sudden
call for a mid semester break by the management.
