According to the statement, Vice Chancellor of the University, Professor Eyitope Ogunbodede, charged the students to be law-abiding and not engage in anything that could further elongate the session.
It also informed parents and guardians to inform their children and wards, particularly those who have already finished their examinations to stay at home so that none of them would use the excuse of reopening the University to do something untoward.
