Two months after the indefinite closure of the Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba Akoko (AAUA), following a violent protest by students, the institution management has announced the reopening of the school for the continuation of academic activities.
A statement issued by the university’s registrar, Mr. Olugbenga Arujulu, noted that the school will officially resume on January 31, 2022, while the disrupted first-semester examination for the 2020/2021 Academic Session will commence on Monday, 31st January 2022.
The statement further stated that all students must pay a reparation fee of N20,000 before resumption.
The statement reads in part;
“The Senate subsequently approved the following conditions for resumption of academic activities: All students must pay a reparation fee of Twenty thousand Naira (N20,000.00) only before resumption:
“The payment is either by cash paid directly or bank transfer, using banks’ applications. All outstanding school fees up to the 1st Semester 2020/2021 Academic Session must be paid by all students before resumption;
“All students must be duly registered up to 1st Semester 2020/2021 Academic Session; Students must swear to an oath of good behaviour before a Commissioner of Oath. Please, visit the University website for the template to be used;
“All students must submit letter of good conduct duly signed by their Parent/Guardian; and All students must show evidence for the above (i-v) before they could be admitted to the campus.
“Any student who is unable to pay his/her school fees should request for Leave of Absence (LOA). The Senate also approved the following procedure for commencement of the suspended 1st Semester examination for the 2020/2021 Academic Session:
