The Management of Ekiti State University, Ado -Ekiti, has refuted reports that it had commenced admissions of candidates for the 2020/2021 academic session, a statement issued on Wednesday in Ado-Ekiti has said.
Bode Olofinmuagun, the Head, Directorate of Information and Corporate Affairs of the institution, who issued the statement, said that the clarification became necessary because of the information that some scammers had begun duping unsuspecting admission seekers under the guise of assisting them to get admission.

”Therefore, the university should not be held liable if any candidate falls victim of these scammers. Parents, guardians and candidates are hereby advised to visit the university website at www.eksu.edu.ng, from time to time for genuine information on the 2020/2021 admission exercise.
”Also, the offices of the Registrar and Bursar of the university are always open to entertain any requests relating to admission exercise/procedures.
”To this end, parents, and particularly candidates, are hereby advised to be wary of scammers that are only out to dupe them”, Olofinmuagun said in the statement.
