The University of Lagos will re-open its doors to students from Tuesday, March 21, 2023, while lectures will resume on Wednesday, March 22, 2023.
This latest directive by the University Management means that students are to arrive at the campus (halls of residence) from Tuesday, March 21, 2023, ahead of the resumption of academic activities (lectures) on Wednesday, March 22, 2023.
It would be recalled that the federal government had directed that students of higher institutions across the country should vacate their schools ahead of the 2023 General Elections. As a result, the University Senate had approved the suspension of academic activities from Tuesday, February 21, 2023, to Tuesday, March 14, 2023.
However, this was extended to Tuesday, March 21, 2023, due to the re-scheduling of the Governorship and House of AssemblyElections from Saturday, March 11, 2023, to Saturday, March 18, 2023.
All members of the university community are implored to adhere to this directive.
