Classes and exams have been put on hold after the entrances to the faculties of arts, business and social science were locked up on Sunday morning.
Agitated students were seen staging a sit-in in front of a locked registrar building at 11am as administrative officers and staff waited in a nearby field.
Earlier, the agitated students were urged to halt their protests until Pro Vice Chancellor Prof Dr Muhammad Samad returned from his trip to China but the request went unheeded.
