The senate of the University of Abuja has approved a revised academic calendar for the 2024/2025 session.

This was announced in a statement on Wednesday.

It said the approval was given during the 187th regular meeting of the UniAbuja senate with 192 members in attendance. During the meeting, the senate deliberated on and approved several key resolutions, including scheduling the next convocation ceremony.

It disclosed that the senate also conducted the election of a new deputy vice-chancellor (academic), picking Abubakar Abba of the Department of Political Science.

“The process was widely acknowledged as fair, transparent, and credible, culminating in an outcome that has been universally accepted.

“The senate unequivocally condemned the actions of certain individuals who, driven by personal interests, sought to tarnish the reputation of the university. Through the dissemination of falsehoods, calumny, and blackmail via the media,” said the statement.

The senate urged the university’s management to take all necessary measures, including disciplinary actions, against individuals or groups engaging in misconduct, illegality, or activities that would undermine the institution’s good name.
