The University of Jos has rescheduled examinations earlier scheduled for Monday and Tuesday following the attack on Angwan Rukuba community in Jos North Local Government Area of Plateau State.
The development was contained in a statement issued on Monday by the Deputy Registrar, Information and Public Relations of the university, Emmanuel Madugu.
“The Vice Chancellor has directed that all examinations scheduled to hold on Monday and Tuesday will be rescheduled.
“This is in view of the Sunday night attack by gunmen on residents of Angwan Rukuba and the consequential tensions it has generated in and around the area,” he said.
He urged staff and students to remain vigilant and avoid unnecessary movements.
Madugu also advised students to report any security breaches to the university’s security unit.
The development follows Sunday’s attack on Angwan Rukuba, which the Plateau State Government said resulted in loss of lives and injuries.
The state government has since imposed a 48-hour curfew on Jos North Local Government Area to restore order.
