He pointed out that COVID-19 is still virulent, while institutions have not yet established mandatory guidelines.
“We have already reviewed responses from some 78 universities, most of which are private universities that insist they are ready to go.
“From the state universities, we have a 50-50 response and we are working to improve that and make sure everyone is really ready to go,” said the Minister.
Nwajiuba, however, expressed optimism that the institutions would soon reopen, but said he would not change the dates.
