DR. PATRICK DAKUM PREACHES PEACE IN THE LAND OF PLATEAU

LET PEACE REIGN IN THE LAND "I have said these things to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the World you will have tribulation. But take heart, I have overcome the world." *John 16:33*  To my good people of Plateau State, indeed the dark days are here again, as the unfolding events that led to the loss of lives and property have shaken our solid foundation as a Home of Peace and Tourism.  I am using this singular opportunity to appeal to the conscience of our core existence as a people to embrace peace, humanness and tolerance in this trying period.  The sad event of the recent past, where innocent souls have perished is highly condemnable and unpardonable by any right thinking individual, organisation and Government.  Although, the numerous security challenges confronting the Nation are enormous, it is surmountable if deliberate efforts are made by our security Agencies and government who are bestowed with the responsibility of protecting lives and property of every Nig

CIRCULATION OF FAKE INFORMATION ABOUT UNIJOS

  UNIVERSITY OF JOS  OFFICE OF THE REGISTRAR  DISCLAIMER CIRCULATION OF FAKE INFORMATION ABOUT UNIJOS The attention of Management of the University of Jos has been drawn to fake information being circulated on some social media platforms purportedly conveying Management’s approval for the resumption of Second Semester Examinations and other Academic activities in the University by 30th August, 2021. It is quite obvious that the fake message is intended to misinform members of the University Community  especially our Students and Staff as well as the public given that it also falsely declared that the University will be reopened following an earlier closure. For the avoidance of doubt, Management’s decision (pending ratification by Senate of the University) did not  direct the School’s closure but the suspension of the Second Semester 2019/2020 Academic Session Examinations and other Academic activities in the University. The suspension remains in place until further  NOTICE Management

PRESS RELEASE

PRESS RELEASE!!  The circular  being circulated on the social media on the resumption of exams for 30th August is fake and should be highly ignored.  This letter is crafted by mischief makers who are trying to misguide students probably for their evil quest for students blood as we have witnessed during the last crisis witnessed where over 3 of our students where ambushed and killed.  And for this reasons,  we deem it as a matter of urgency inform Josites that only letter headed letters signed and endorsed by the school management and also that of the SUG should be regarded. At this point,  we seek to encourage JOSITES to be security conscious wherever they are and they should not relent or give up for there will definitely be light at the end of the tunnel.  Be of good conduct and spirits..  Aluta Continua Victoria Arceta..  Zingak Nenyitwe Cyrus Majority Leader SUG House of Parliament,  University of Jos.
