Osun State Government has postponed the 2025 Unified Promotion Examination (UPE),which was initially scheduled to hold on Tuesday, July 15, 2025.
This is to observe the public holiday declared on Monday by the Federal Government to mourn the passing of the departed President Muhammadu Buhari.
In a public service announcement signed by Mrs. Olubukola Eniola Akintola, Registrar of the Osun State Examinations Board, the state government stated that all examination papers slated for Tuesday have been rescheduled.
According to the statement, “This is to inform the general public, particularly Heads of Schools, Teachers, Parents/Guardians, and students of all public secondary schools in the state participating in the 2025 Unified Promotion Examination (UPE), that all papers scheduled for Tuesday, July 15, 2025, have been rescheduled”.
Going by the new timetable, Senior Secondary (SS) students will now write their papers on Tuesday, July 22, 2025, while Junior Secondary School (JSS) students will take their exams on Monday, July 21, 2025.
The Registrar explained that the shift in the examination dates was due to the public holiday declared by the Federal Government to mourn the passing of former President Muhammadu Buhari.
The government urged all stakeholders to take note of the new dates and ensure full compliance.
