The management of Ambrose Alli University (AAU), Ekpoma, has directed students of the institution to return to campus on Thursday, 26th May, 2022.

This was contained in a memo released by the acting registrar Ambrose E. Odiase today. Students of the University were earlier instructed to vacate the Halls of Residence on Campus on or before 22nd March, 2022 following the commencement of an industrial action by the Academic Staff Union of Universities on Monday, 14th February, 2022.

The memo dated 23rd May, 2022 read: “With reference to our earlier circular No. AAU/REG/CIR.100/VOL.VIII/40 dated 18th March, 2022 directing all students to vacate the Halls of Residence on or before midnight on Tuesday, 22nd March, 2022, the University Management, on behalf of Senate, has reviewed the said directive and directed that students should return to campus on Thursday, 26th May, 2022.

“Consequently, all returning students for the 2020/2021 session are hereby informed that the Halls of Residence would be opened on the above-mentioned date.

“This circular is for the information and compliance of all students of Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma.”

ACJ_UNIBEN is currently awaiting the reaction of AAU ASUU to the directive given by the school management.
