The deputy Vice chancellor Academic Affairs Prof Umar Kakumba in his letter dated April 25th says the Vice chancellor Prof Barnabas Nawangwe earlier wrote to all colleges, requesting those that needed an extension to make a formal communication.
He says that only three colleges responded and these were accordingly given a two-week semester extension that was approved by Senate and Council.
