Kaduna State University Students Express Concerns Over Sallah Day Exams

Several students from departments within the Faculty of Science at Kaduna State University (KASU) have raised concerns regarding the delayed commencement of examinations, particularly affecting first-year students (100 level).

According to reports, the delay in exam commencement has led to apprehension among students, exacerbated by the prospect of exams coinciding with the upcoming Sallah celebrations. Compounding the issue, some students also face the challenge of having scheduled exams on the same day as Sallah.

While the reasons for the exam delay remain undisclosed, students are appealing to the university management to reconsider the timing of the examinations, taking into account the significance of the Sallah festivities. They stress the importance of allowing students the opportunity to partake in the cultural and religious celebrations without the added pressure of academic assessments.

In light of these concerns, KASU EYES, represented by their Media Aide 2 and Students Activist, fervently appeals to the university management to prioritize the well-being and holistic development of students by revisiting the examination schedule. The students' plea is rooted in the hope that their voices will be heard and that appropriate measures will be taken to ensure a balance between academic responsibilities and personal celebrations.
