3. The students union is hereby proscribed indefinitely.
4. That we made bold to say that the students on campus in the university hostels have been having regular supply of power at designated time and supported by solar power system, and couldn’t have been part of that protest and that the university is not answerable to the issues or main cause of the protest which is epileptic power supply by the BEDC.
“That further details will be made known in due time “
