Northern School of Business (NOBISCO) has been closed down following a demonstration staged by students last week.

Students have been given less than an hour to vacate the campus, our correspondent reports.

TV3's Zubaida Ismail reports that some students are already packing out as school authorities are bent on enforcing the directive.

Students are said to have demonstrated last Thursday after authorities asked about 160 of their mates to produce two bags of cement each for missing a roll call conducted after the March 6 holidays.

Our Northern Region correspondent said the school's authorities had asked the students not to take leave during the holidays but 160 of them defied the order.

After the punishment to produce the bags of cement was meted out to them, they went on rampage destroying facilities at the school, which is expected to close the current academic term by Thursday, March 24.

TV3 gathers not all students have finished writing their terminal examinations and so the development will disrupt the school's academic calendar.
