Following two days of protest by students of the University of Benin over late school fees payment levy, the Senate of the University has met, virtually, and authorised the closure of the University with immediate effect.
The University’s decision-making body said the action was taken due to security advice and also to prevent the escalation of the protest which was already being hijacked by external forces.
