FUOYE Debunks Resumption News, Calls It False

FUOYE Debunks Resumption News, Calls It False

The administration of the Federal University, Oye-Ekiti (FUOYE) has debunked the rumour of resuming academic activities spreading on social media.

The fake news which had the university's logo claimed that registration and academic activities for both freshers and returning students would commence on October 10, the News Agency of Nigeria reports.

Reacting to the news, the Vice-Chancellor of the University, Prof. Abayomi Fasina, in a statement signed by his Special Adviser on Media Matters, Mr Wole Balogun, said the university had no plans of resumption yet, describing the news as false.

Fasina advised the public to dismiss the news, stating that the institution would announce its resumption to the students officially.

“Members of the public and particularly our teeming students are enjoined to ignore the fake news currently going viral on the social media that the institution is resuming academic activities on Oct.10, 2022.

“This is false and the handiwork of some idle hands who are mischievously out to misinform unsuspecting members of the public.

“FUOYE has not announced any date for resumption of academic activities, so any news laying claim to such is fake and should be so dismissed by the general public.

“If and when the coast is clear for resumption of academic activities on our twin campuses in Oye-Ekiti and Ikole-Ekiti respectively, the institution will convey the message to our students via the appropriate and official means,” he said.
