UNILORIN Yet to Release Admission Screening Date
The
management of the University of Ilorin (UNILORIN) has said that it is
yet to announce the date and procedure for the screening of candidates
for the 2017/2018 admission.
In a statement issued in Ilorin Wednesday by the university and signed by the Head of Corporate and Information Unit, Alhaji Kunle Akogun, following the trending on social media that the university had announced the date and procedure for the screening of candidates for the 2017/2018 admission, the school blamed “the misinformation on the handiwork of scammers and 419ers who are bent on taking advantage of the anxious admission seekers to fleece them of huge sums of money”.
The
statement also said that the purported announcement even went as far as
directing admission seekers to a phantom website on which to upload
their eligibility details.
It
said: “We want to state categorically that the University of Ilorin is
yet to commence any screening for the 2017/2018 admission exercise. In
fact, we are yet to release the cut-off marks for this year’s admission
exercise.
“The
online announcement is the handiwork of scammers and 419ers who are
bent on taking advantage of the anxious admission seekers to fleece them
of huge sums of money.
“Perceptive
members of the public ought to know, even from the headline of the
statement, that such can never emanate from the University of Ilorin.
“We
therefore warn all admission seekers and their parents/guardians to
exercise some patience and wait for the official release of screening
instruction by the University. They should be wary of falling cheaply
for the antics of scammers.”
