The senate of the University of Uyo (UNIUYO) has approved the reopening of the institution and resumption of academic activities with effect from Monday.

This is contained in a statement on Friday by the acting registrar, Linus Okoko.

The resumption followed the suspension of the eight-month strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).

According to the statement, the institution’s reopening is for completing the 2020/2021 academic session and the commencement of the 2021/2022 academic year.
