Moshood Abiola Polytechnic (MAPOLY) in Abeokuta, Ogun State, has been closed indefinitely following a protest by students over delays in the verification of their National Diploma (ND) results.
According to Politics Nigeria, the protest began when students who completed their ND at other polytechnics faced issues with verifying their results, causing delays that hindered their academic progress.
In a statement issued on Monday, the institution’s Public Relations Officer, Yemi Ajibola, announced the closure, citing concerns for the safety of students and staff.
“The management of Moshood Abiola Polytechnic, Abeokuta, has decided to close the institution effective from Monday, January 13, 2025, until further notice. This measure is to protect lives and property due to the ongoing protest by some students regarding the verification of their National Diploma results from other schools,” the statement said.
Ajibola reaffirmed the institution’s zero tolerance for fraudulent results and advised students to stay off campus for their safety. He assured the public that updates would be shared as the situation unfolds.
