The management of Kwara State Polytechnic has announced a shift in the date of the Computer-based test, CBT for its students due to unrest that happened within the axis on Saturday
In release signed by the management, said the postponement was due to a clash between the Nigeria Police Force, Lajolo community and Kwara Polytechnic students which left many injured, saying that the exam date has been shifted indefinitely.
The statement reads in part,
“Attention of Kwara State Polytechnic authority has been drawn to the misinformation making round in some quarters that the Polytechnic Campus is under siege by students protest.
It is pertinent to clear the air that the Polytechnic Students are law abiding citizens and will not indulge in any illegal activity that will disrupt their academic careers.
“Meanwhile,the incident that occurred at Lajolo community early this morning was between the Police and Lajolo community and has nothing to do with the Polytechnic Students or the Campus, as first semester CBT examinations are going on right now in the Campus without any disturbance.
“However, the management of the Polytechnic has magnanimously accepted the plea of the students who could not make it to the campus before the blockage at Oyun, to rescheduling their examinations on another date to be communicated to them via their heads of the department.”
