The Public Relations Officer of the University of Sierra Leone, Lola Aforo, has disclosed to Politico that the annual congregation would be held in December this year. She said the change in the University’s calendar which had pushed the congregation out of its traditional date was due to strike actions by academic staff and students.
The PRO said the University administration was going to ensure that the original date was upheld this time around, noting that “we are looking into the curriculum and we are going to do everything it takes to make sure that the event takes place’’.
She said the University would “educate and sensitize” the public about the new development and stated that “we would ensure that students pass all academic requirements so that we would operate again as we used to”.
Aforo said this change was a positive sign that the University of Sierra Leone was back on track.
