The Federal University, Oye-Ekiti (FUOYE) has released an internal memo which banned students from riding cars to the campus
Naija News understands that the school management lamented the recklessness of some students bringing cars to the campuses, noting that the development has become a threat of life to commuters and pedestrians.
The memo titled ‘Prohibition of use of cars by students on the University Campus” and dated November 10, 2021’ read thus: “The University Management has noted with deep disappointment, the indiscriminate and reckless driving by some students within the University. This has put commuters and pedestrians at high and unnecessary risks.”
“Consequently, Management has directed that no student be allowed to drive/use any car on the University Campuses with immediate effect,” the memo signed by FUOYE Registrar, Mufutau A. Ibrahim added.
All students concerned have been directed to henceforth pack their cars properly outside the campuses, Naija News reports.

Meanwhile, gunmen suspected to be bandits on Wednesday night attacked the main campus of the Federal University of Technology, Minna, Niger State.
Naija News learned that the gunmen reportedly attempted to invade the institution around 11:30pm as students returned to their lodges from the campus.
According to the institution’s Student Union President, Shuaib Isiaka Yahaya, gunshots were heard in front of the school gate, leading to students scampering for safety.
“There is a security challenge at the FUT Minna Gidan Kwano campus, we urge all our students to be in their respective lodges and stay calm,” he told reporters.
