The Management of the Federal University Dutsinma (FUDMA) in Katsina State has announced a one-week mid-semester break starting from 24th February.
The closure of the school followed a protest embarked on by the students on Sunday after they alleged that the Civilian Joint Task Force (JTF) had shot one of their colleagues to death.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the students’ protest continued on Monday morning.
Reports indicated that the JTF members on Sunday shot the student, alleging that he was an informant.
The FUDMA Vice Chancellor, Prof. Armaya’u Bichi, announced the decision of the Senate to close the school in a statement issued in Katsina on Monday.
Bichi further advised the students to leave campus before 6.00 p.m. on 24th February.
“The Management wishes the students a happy and peaceful mid-semester break,” he said.
