The order is as result of an explosion that rocked the Special Education wing of the library building on Monday July 4, leaving cracks in it. In a statement signed by the University’s Registrar, Mr Gabriel Egbe in Calabar, Obi directed that staff and students should keep off the building.
“The Chief Security Officer and the University Librarian are to ensure a total evacuation of staff, students and all university properties out of the building with immediate effect.
“The Chief Security Officer is to seal up the building and ensure the protection of any other university property that may be left behind,” she said.
