OUR DEAR ABUAD PARENTS AND STUDENTS:

PHYSICAL RESUMPTION OF AFE BABALOLA UNIVERSITY FOR 2020/2021 ACADEMIC SESSION

Warm greetings to our most esteemed parents, guardians and beloved ABUAD students.

Everything that has a beginning must have an end.  We therefore give glory to God Almighty for His protection upon all of us since the closure of schools from Monday, 23rd March, 2020.

It is with joy that I bring to your notice the Ekiti State COVID-19 Task Force Committee’s approval for the physical re-opening of our Institution.  In the letter dated 29th September, 2020, the Ekiti State COVID-19 Task Force Committee stated inter alia that our “University’s preparation is rated Excellent and is therefore duly approved to re-open after October 2, 2020, in line with the Governor’s earlier pronouncement.”  

While many must have given up hope of coming back to school this year because of the COVID-19 pandemic which has been ravaging the whole world since the last quarter of 2019, ABUAD officially announces Monday, the 5th day of October 2020 as the date for physical resumption of students for 2020/2021 academic session.  The resumption is staggered as follows:

The changes to the resumption date is due to the Gubernatorial Election coming up on 9th and 10th October, 2020 in Ondo State.

Kindly be reminded that no student shall be granted access into the University without fulfilling their stipulated financial obligation to the University.

However, while you were all safely staying with your parents, the Management of your University was working round the clock to make sure that you return to a safe and secured campus devoid of any apprehension or fear of being infected by the pandemic or any other epidemic, for that matter.

As we have been informing you through TV advertisements and our website, ABUAD is fully equipped and prepared for your resumption.  All we need is your full cooperation to adhere to the COVID-19 Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) protocols and follow all the University rules and regulations upon resumption.

We seize this opportunity to thank all our Parents and Guardians for their unalloyed belief in our Founder/Chancellor, Aare Afe Babalola, SAN, and by extension, in our Institution, the Afe Babalola University.  Our prayers are that you will never lack in providing for your children and wards, and may you all reap the fruits of your labour over them.  Your labour over them shall not be in vain.

May the Almighty God keep all of us safe and bless our new academic session with abundant success and joint achievements.

Welcome to 2020/2021 Academic Session!
