In the video posted by @tashas_beauty, the student is dressed in a white long-sleeved shirt that is dotted with ink from people congratulating her.

She said she spent more years than expected until UNICAL due to delays caused by COVID-19 and strikes by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).

This made her to spend six years in UNICAL despite studying mass Communication, which is a four year course.

She said:

“Unto say I don finally graduate o. After 6 years. I can’t stop crying. I can’t believe it. No more next semester. I don graduate. Make una hold me o.”

ASUU strike and delayed graduation

Speaking to TheTalk.NG about delayed graduation in Nigerian universities, Cornelius Ellah, head of the Department of Mass Communication at the University of Cross River State (UNICROSS), said the situation puts psychological pressure on students.

His words:

“Delayed graduation psychologically affects students and puts some of them under undue pressure to “just graduate and leave. Also, delayed graduation exerts additional financial burdens on students and their parents/sponsors. Affected students are usually expected to pay school fees for “extra time.”

“If such delays are caused by ASUU strike and other factors that are beyond the control of affected students, the solution would be to adequately fund universities and attend to the demands of ASUU, for the sake of industrial harmony and normalcy in Universities.”
