The University of Jos (UNIJOS) has postponed all exams planned for Monday and Tuesday because of rising tension in Jos after a deadly attack.

The attack happened in Anguwan Rukuba, an area where many students and staff of the university live.

The school management advised both students and staff to stay indoors and be careful due to ongoing security concerns.

In a statement released on Sunday, the Deputy Registrar for Information and Public Relations, Emmanuel Madugu, said the decision was made because of the fear and tension caused by the attack.

He explained that the Vice-Chancellor approved the postponement to protect everyone in the university.

According to the statement, all exams scheduled for March 30 and 31, 2026, will be rescheduled to new dates.

The university also advised people to be cautious when moving around, especially early in the morning, and to report any suspicious activity to the school’s security unit.

The management added that it is working closely with security agencies and will give more updates when necessary.
