The management of the Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba-Akoko (AAUA), in Ondo State has reopened the campus for the resumption of students after about a month closure as a result of looming riot, warning that no form of union activities will be entertained.A circular today, June 9, signed by the institution’s Registrar, Opeoluwa Akinfemiwa, read: “All students of Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba Akoko are welcome back from their mid semester break.
“As the university reopened today, 9th June, 2019, for the conclusion of first semester 2018/2019 session, all students are advised to go about their normal academic activities and preparation for first semester examinations, which commence on Monday, 17th June, 2019.
“No any form of Congress of students will be allowed on campus, as all students are expected to settle down immediately to prepare for their examinations.
“All law abiding students are assured of adequate security, as law enforcement agencies are fully on ground. Serious sanctions await any one who plans or attempts to disrupt the peace on campus.”
The students of the institution have been at home for over a month following the closure of the institution.
It would be recalled that on April 24, 2019 protest rocked the institution over the “No Fees, No Test/Examination” policy introduced by the management.
The students described the action of the school’s management as an effort to make indigent students drop out of school going by the exorbitant fees of between N180,000 and N250,000 earlier put in place by the management which most of them have been unable to pay up.
