Tuesday- 8th June, 2021: The Kaduna State University (KASU) has suspended academic activities of its undergraduate students indefinitely.

Mr Samuel Manshop, KASU Registrar, disclosed this in a statement in Kaduna on Tuesday.

The Registrar who did not give reasons for the suspension, however, said academic activities would continue for postgraduate programmes, college of medicine, pharmaceutical sciences and part-time programmes.

We have increased school fees but not public yet – Kaduna State University

“The management of KASU wishes to notify staff, students and the public that academic activities for undergraduate students have been suspended indefinitely.

“Postgraduate programmes, college of medicine, faculty of pharmaceutical sciences and part-time programmes are to continue with their activities.

“Staff is also expected to report to work as usual, while management will communicate further developments,” he said.

Recall that undergraduate students had protested the hike in school fees from between N24,0000 and N36,000 to between N100,000 and N400,000.

The students, who began the protest since the increment was announced in April, demanded the reversal of the new school fees.
