The students who were unable to continue with their semester examination scheduled to commence on Monday, January 9, marched to the office of the vice-chancellor to air their grievances, but could not find him on seat, and thereby proceeded to block the Jalingo-Bali federal highway in protest.
It was gathered that the school had announced January 9 for the continuation of the exams but students were stranded after arriving at their exam venues and met the halls locked by members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, Non-Academic Staff Union, and the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities as a result of the non-payment of the entitlements.
