OMOLAYO HOSTEL DOES NOT BELONG TO EKSU: MANAGEMENT REAFFIRMS.

OMOLAYO HOSTEL DOES NOT BELONG TO EKSU: MANAGEMENT REAFFIRMS.

The attention of the Management of Ekiti State University, Ado - Ekiti has again, been drawn to a video resurfacing online, showing the deplorable state of the Omolayo hostel located outside the university campus.

The university wishes to clearly state that, this particular video had surfaced online in August, 2025 and had been addressed in a press release of the university dated 30th August, 2025, stating the position of the university on the popular hostel. 

While the university Management is not happy with the deplorable state of the hostel, we wish to still reiterate and maintain categorically that the said hostel, located outside the campus, is not the property of Ekiti State University, Ado - Ekiti and as such, the university has no right on the property.

Though, the university Management appreciates and will never forget the philanthropic gesture of the Late Dr.  Lawrence Omolayo, who built the hostel several years back but definitely not in a position to meddle in the family affairs of the highly respected Omolayo dynasty when it has not been asked to do so.

The Vice Chancellor, Prof. Babatola Ayodele hereby enjoins bloggers and online media to cease and desist forthwith, from further tagging the name of the university on any misleading and inappropriate posts.
