On Monday November 24, 2014 students of the University of Jos embarked on a peaceful demonstration against certain issues.
Management met and issued a release assuring students and members of the
University Community that some of the issues raised by the students
were nothing but rumours that had no basis.
However, certain steps were taken to address all the grievances including the shifting of the Second
Semester Examinations with one (1) week and the setting up of a Committee to look at the other issues.
This morning, Tuesday November 25, 2014 students mobilized themselves
again and blocked the Bauchi Road Highway and set tyres on fire.
In order to avoid further escalation of the situation, Management met
this morning and directed that the University should be closed down
until further
notice. Students are hereby directed to vacate the hostels on or before 2pm.
Please ensure that this directive is strictly complied with.
