The Kaduna State University (KASU) has on Tuesday announced the suspension of academic activities for its undergraduate students indefinitely.

KASU Registrar, Mr Samuel Manshop, disclosed this in a statement in Kaduna. Manshop, however, did not give any reasons for the suspension.

However, recall that undergraduate students had protested the hike in school fees from between N24,0000 and N36,000 to between N100,000 and N400,000. The students had, in widespread protests, demanded a reversal of the new school fees.
