UNIUYO resumes academic activities October 24

The Senate of the University of Uyo (UNIUYO), Akwa Ibom State, has approved the reopening of the institution and resumption of academic activities with effect from October 24.

This was contained in a statement issued on Friday by the UNIUYO Acting Registrar, Linus Okoko.

The resumption followed the suspension of the eight months strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).

Okoko noted that the reopening of the institution was for the completion of the 2020/2021 academic session and the commencement of the 2021/2022 academic session.

“The management of the university of Uyo wishes to inform all students, staff, and the general public that the Senate at its emergency meeting held on Thursday, Oct. 20, approved the resumption of academic activities for the completion of 2020/2021 and commencement of the 2021/2022 academic year following the suspension of ASUU’s strike.

“Students should note that the university reopens on Monday, October 24 for full academic activities,” the Registrar stated.

He, however, urged students admitted for the 2021/2022 academic session to ensure they paid their screening fees immediately.
