University Begins Examination Despite ASSU Strike

Students of the Obafemi Awolowo University, OAU, Ile-Ife, have been re-assured that nothing would disrupt the conduct of the 2017/2018 Rain Semester Examinations as the University Management has put everything in order to make it hitch-free.

In a statement by the university’s spokesperson, Mr Abiodun Olanrewaju said: “It is very expedient to issue to make this clarification but also to emphasize the readiness of the university to conduct the examinations as scheduled, contrary to the falsehood which the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife branch has been peddling about on the true position of things on OAU campus.”
So, it will be disastrous for any students of the institution to stay at home waiting for ASSU to call off its strike.

As of today in 2019, OAU is still in the 2017/2018 academic session and yet to commence the 2018/2019 session not to talk of the 2019/2020 session which should be the ideal.
