“This step is taken by Government to ensure that academic activities in the institution are not disrupted further.
“Staff and students are hereby enjoined to ensure that peaceful co-existence reigns within and outside the institution’s campus.”
The institution has been embroiled in a leadership tussle.
The State government had suspended the Rector, Dr Tajudeen Odetayo over alleged maladministration and financial misappropriation.
An Acting Rector, Alabi Kehinde Adeyemi was subsequently appointed by the State government.
Disagreeing with the decision, the local chapter of the Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics, ASUP, suspended academic activities.
The National Industrial Court, Ibadan Division, reinstated Odetayo as Rector, but the State government in a bit to avert crisis closed the school for two weeks.
