University of Ilorin Refutes Claims of Cult Clash on Campus
According to a news report from Punch, the University of Ilorin in Kwara State has refuted reports of an alleged cult clash on its premises.
A page on X.com, identified as Naija Confra, which tweets about eradicating violence, killings, and other vices associated with confraternities in Nigeria, had tweeted late Sunday about a clash between members of the Aye and KK cult groups.
It tweeted, “A few days ago, Naija Confra reported 'unconfirmed' news about a cult clash between Aye and KK at the University of Ilorin, Kwara State.
“We can now confirm that this news is true. The clash was caused by the 'cross-carpeting' (switching) of a former KK member named Ahmed Musa to Aye. We are actively working to gather all necessary evidence to provide a detailed report.”
Reacting to the news on Monday, July 22, 2024, the institution's Director of Corporate Affairs, Kunle Akogun, in a tweet titled “No Cult Clash at UNILORIN,” stated, “The attention of the management of the University of Ilorin has been drawn to a tweet on the X platform (formerly Twitter) by Naija Confra 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 discredited the tweet, we feel duty-bound to reassure our stakeholders, including students and parents, that nothing of the sort occurred at the University of Ilorin a few days ago' or at any time whatsoever.”
Akogun asserted that the school “remains entirely cult-free, a status it has maintained for some time. 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.”
