The University of Ilorin has expelled six students and placed another six on rustication for one academic session over various acts of misconduct, following recommendations by the Students’ Disciplinary Committee (SDC).
The disciplinary actions were approved at the 227th meeting of the committee held on Thursday, 9 October 2025. Letters conveying the decisions to the affected students were issued by the University and copies were obtained on Monday, 22 December 2025.

The expelled students have been directed to immediately surrender all University property in their possession, including identity cards, and are barred from entering the campus. They were also informed of their right to appeal the decision to the University Council through their respective deans.
In addition, six students were rusticated for the 2025/2026 academic session.

One other student, Isaac Chuks Okoh of the Department of Science Education, Faculty of Education, was issued a formal warning. The University cautioned that any further act of misconduct by the student would attract stiffer disciplinary measures and directed him to report to the Student Affairs Unit to complete the disciplinary process.
