The task force will visit faculties, departments and lecture venues to verify that lectures are proceeding as scheduled. All academic staff have been urged to adhere strictly to the lecture timetable and commence teaching without further delay. Students are also encouraged to attend classes as planned.

The university’s Management emphasized its commitment to maintaining academic excellence and ensuring the timely delivery of programmes, calling on staff cooperation to achieve these goals.
