The management of the University of Ilorin, UNILORIN, North central Nigeria has denied reports of a cult clash on campus.
Gatekeepers News reports that a tweet by Naija Confra on X platform (formerly Twitter) claimed that a cult clash occurred at the university a few days ago, but failed to provide specific details.
In a statement, the university’s Director of Corporate Affairs, Kunle Akogun, described the report as “entirely the figment of his wild imagination” and emphasized that the university remains cult-free.
Akogun assured stakeholders, including students and parents, that no such incident has occurred at the University of Ilorin.
The university’s management urged the public to disregard the report and assured that the institution is committed to maintaining a safe and secure environment for all members of its community.
The statement reads in full: “The attention of the management of the University of Ilorin has been drawn to a tweet on X platform (formerly Twitter) by one Naija Confra (naijaconfra) on a purported cult clash at the University.
“Even though the tweet failed to provide details as to where on our campus the purported clash took place, an omission that instantly gave a lie to the tweet, we feel duty bound to disabuse the minds of our stakeholders, including students and parents, that nothing of such occurred at the University of Ilorin “a few days ago” or at any time whatsoever.
” For the avoidance of doubt, the University of Ilorin remains entirely cult-free, a status it has maintained for some time now.
“So, the purported cult clash, as reported by Naija Confra, is entirely the figment of his wild imagination and has nothing to do with the University of Ilorin.”
