Adeniran said: “For the sake of the people who will observe jumat prayers at various mosques, between 1pm-3pm, they have the grace to come for their exams afterwards.”
He said the Muslim faithfuls have been permitted to observe prayers between this time, while non-muslims write their exams.
According to him, “the examination will still be on, but our Muslim brethren whose scheduled papers fall within the jumat period, will be allowed to sit for their exams when they return from the mosque.”
He however reiterated that the adjustment will not affect non-muslim candidates.
Dr. Adeniran added that, as his practice during the week, he will be at the centre to supervise the examination that will end tomorrow.
