However, In a statement signed by the SUG President of the institution, Comrade Abiola Azeez Adigun debunked the viral pictures, saying that “the award does not emanate from our office, it is a safe made and probably photoshopped by an enemy of progress and that of the union”
Corroborating, the Director of Media and publicity to the SUG President of the institution, Comrade Jamiu Omoniyi said: “We didn’t present awards to cultists. It is a total fallacy. It is from unscrupulous elements who caused distraction. We don’t have any activities with cultists on campus.”
When asked who is behind the viral pictures, Omoniyi said: ” We can not say. That will be an accusation. All we know is that there are some unscrupulous elements of distraction. We are working to fish them out and revitalise the reputation of our institution. ”
Contrarily, in an interview with a student leader of the institution who doesn’t want his name on print, said: Our SUG actually presented awards to the cultists. It is not news to students of the institution. Each every SUG always present awards to cultists every year. The past administration did it too. ”
