Governor \u00a0Umaru Al-Makura of Nasarawa State on Tuesday ordered that the Nasarawa State University, Keffi (NSUK), remained closed, pending the implementation of the investigative report on the students\u2019 unrest in February.<\/p>\n

Al-makura made the statement\u00a0in Lafia when he a received the report of the\u00a0unrest\u00a0that led to the death of two students.<\/p>\n

The state governor, who was represented by the Deputy Governor, Mr Dameshi Luka, said that the university authorities did not consult with the visitor to the university before recalling the students.<\/p>\n

He, therefore, announced an\u00a0indefinite suspension of the resumption date, pending\u00a0full consideration of the report of the commission of inquiry.<\/p>\n

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls\u00a0that the school’s senate in a statement by the registrar, Mr Dalhatu Mamman, had announced April 28 as the date for the\u00a0re-opening of the institution.<\/p>\n

Earlier, while presenting the\u00a0report, the Chairman, Dr Amin Zaigi, expressed displeasure over the re-opening of the institution, saying\u00a0that investigations were still going on.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cwe find it necessary to note our reservation over the re-opening of the university when we are\u00a0still carrying out our work\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n
