The Management of Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida University, Lapai wishes to categorically distant itself from the false and misleading information currently circulating on social media regarding alleged attacks and rape incidents involving students of the Institution.

The malicious narrative, sponsored by certain individuals with questionable intentions, appears to be aimed at causing panic, misinforming the public, and tarnishing the image of the University.

Members of the general public and academic community are advised to disregard the unfounded information and refrain from spreading unverified or emotionally charged content, especially when it touches on sensitive issues such as security and student welfare.

The University is actively collaborating with relevant security agencies to investigate, and fish out those behind the mischievous publications with a view to bringing the perpetrators to book.

IBB University, Lapai Management reaffirms its commitment to the safety and well-being of the students.

Students are therefore, urged to always report security-related concerns to the University authority or the nearest police station for prompt action.

Let it be known that the University does not condone any form of criminal activity and will continue to work with all relevant stakeholders to ensure a conducive learning environment for her students.

Members of the general public, especially users of social media, are encouraged to verify all information before sharing it on any medium and avoid sensationalism, as such actions only fuel unnecessary fear and confusion.

Any person found to be directly or indirectly involved in any form of crime will be dealt with accordingly.
