Ambrose Alli University (AAU) in Ekpoma, Edo Stat4e, has cancelled the final year examinations written on January 29.
In a memo released, the university’s Registrar, Ephraim Isiraojie, said the decision followed the ‘wild jubilation’ and celebration by graduating students from the Faculty of Arts, which violated the university’s directives.
Isiraojie said the graduating students failed to adhere to the institution’s laws prohibiting such celebrations within the campus.
According to him, the students from the departments of Mass Communication, English, History, and International Studies engaged in car displays as they flouted the school rules.
Isiraojie said the students used sirens, sprayed money, and blocked access roads leading in and out of the university.
The Registrar wrote: “The university management in an emergency meeting, held on Wednesday, 29th January 2025, has decided to invoke the extant laws on wild jubilation/celebration.
“The management has thereby cancelled all the final year examinations written on Wednesday, 29th January 2025, including but not limited to the following: ELS41I; MAC 414; IIIS416.
“The university management shall decide in due course when such cancelled examinations shall be rescheduled.”
Isiraojie said this punishment should serve as a deterrent to all graduating students yet to complete their finals.
