The University of Benin (UNIBEN) has announced the indefinite suspension of all academic activities following a severe power outage affecting the campus.

This decision was made in response to ongoing challenges with electricity supply, which have significantly disrupted normal operations and posed safety concerns for students.

According to official statements from the university management, the prolonged power outage has adversely impacted essential services, which has caused the students to protest.

This situation has rendered it difficult to maintain a calm environment for teaching, learning, and research activities.

The university administration emphasized that nothing can be done in their power to address the power supply issue and restore normalcy.

However, given the unpredictable nature of the outage and its effects on campus life, a specific timeline for the resumption of academic activities has not been determined.

The suspension affects all undergraduate and postgraduate programs, including lectures, examinations, and other related activities. Students are advised to remain patient and monitor official university channels for updates and further instructions regarding the situation.
