Students of the University of Lagos (UNILAG) are to remain at home for some time, the institution’s authority has directed.<\/p>\n

The University leaders Friday ordered the immediate closure of the institution, ordering all students to vacate halls of residence before 10am same  Friday.<\/p>\n

In a release by its management, the Senate of UNILAG considered closure of the institution imperative due to students\u2019 agitation over poor electricity and water supply in the community, and the difficulty faced by the large number of students living off campus to attend classes as a result of the fuel crisis.<\/p>\n

Part of the release read, \u201cIn order to forestall a further breakdown of law and order on campus, Senate resolved that all academic activities on campus are hereby suspended with immediate effect. <\/p>

\u201cThe University is therefore closed with immediate effect. All students are to vacate the various halls of residence immediately. No student should remain in the halls of residence after 10.00a.m on Friday, 8th April, 2016. A decision to re-open for normal academic activities will be taken as soon as municipal services improve.\u201d <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, members of the University community have been enjoined to go about their normal activities as adequate security measures have been put in place for safety of lives and properties of residents, while the Police from Sabo, Denton, Surulere, Bariga and Orile divisions, have taken the responsibility of maintaining law and order at the Akoka end of the gate leading to the University.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
