Vice Chancellors of universities have been told to conclude arrangements for immediate and full reopening, following the decline in COVID-19 infection rates.

The National Universities Commission (NUC), which issued the directive, said the Federal Ministry of Education has accepted its request for varsities to get set for immediate resumption of academic activities.

In the memo, NUC also stated that varsities can now conclude their resumption arrangements as long as they are in line with Nigeria Centre for Disease Control guidelines.
