BREAKING: Tension as Benue State University postpones exams on examination day

However, it was also gathered from reliable sources within the files of the school that the main examinations will remain as earlier slated.

The main examinations will commence on Thursday 10 June.
The GST examinations will now hold after the last paper of the main exams.
