About 25, 000 graduating students were expected to participate in the ceremony.
Nigeria is among several countries battling the dreaded coronavirus disease which has claimed thousands of lives across the world.
NOUN’s Registrar, Felix Edoka announced the postponement in a three paragraph statement issued in the early hours of Tuesday in Abuja.
The statement said the Governing Council and Senate of the university jointly took the decision in view of the health dangers inherent in the gathering of a large number of people at this time.
