IPOB: UNIZIK Moves Convocation Ceremony To 31st May

The management of Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Anambra State, has shifted its 18th convocation date.The ceremony billed to be held on May 30 and 31, 2024 has been readjusted to hold only on May 31.This follows a directive on Tuesday by the Indigenous People of Biafra that the school shift its convocation earlier scheduled for May 30, because the day is “Biafra’s Heroes Day” and a stay-at-home order has been declared across the Southeast.IPOB, in an earlier release three weeks ago, by its spokesman, Emma Powerful, had announced the stay-at-home on May 30 to celebrate the heroes of Biafra.The reason for the rescheduling is because of the Federal Government’s appointment of new Governing Council members who will be inaugurated in Abuja on May 30, 2024.“As the university management is expected to be present in the inauguration in Abuja, it was considered necessary and inevitable to adjust the convocation ceremony date to only May 31, 2024, for all activities of the 2024 18th convocation ceremony.https://punchng.com/unizik-reschedules-convocation-as-ipob-massob-insist-on-may-30-sit-at-home/
