COVID-19: UI Bars Graduands Without First Class From Convocation Hall

University of Ibadan

Graduands without first-class honours have been barred by the University of Ibadan from physically attending the 2021 convocation ceremonies of the institution.

The university also barred the graduands without first class and their parents from being physically present on campus for graduation.

Instead, they were asked to join the convocation ceremony online.

A circular released by the university stated that the convocation would hold between November 15 and 17.

The University’s Public Relations Officer, Olatunji Oladejo, said the decision was taken to curb the spread of coronavirus.
