ND 1 examination timetable....ND 2 Semester Holiday before examination

By Asiwaju Michael Adekunle (AMA)  The ND 1 first semester examinations will be commencing on Tuesday 27th March 2018. This examination has being slated to cover a period of three weeks and due to the lack of infrastructure (Class rooms, etc), it was gotten from a reliable source that it's likely for the ND 2 to be placed on a vacation for the period of examination so to avoid clash in the examination timetable and lectures timetable.  This would actually mean VACATION before EXAMINATION for the ND 2 students. I would say they should get ready to travel home and grow fatter for that period of two weeks as the case maybe.  Check back for more information.
