The Vice Chancellor of the University of Calabar has directed that the payment of school charges by undergraduates of the institution be put on hold until further notice.
A release issued by the Registrar of the University of Calabar, Mr Gabriel Egbe disclosed that the directive is coming on the heels of a protest embarked upon by students of the institution over the recent adjustment in undergraduate school charges.
In the release, the registrar said that the Management of the institution is a listening administration and has accordingly assured the students as critical stakeholders that appropriate arrangements have been put in place through constructive engagements with the students to resolve the matter.
Management however commended the students for the mature, reasonable, and civilized manner exhibited towards resolving the matter.
