The institution described the alleged actions as misconduct capable of bringing the university into disrepute, stressing that it would not tolerate behaviour that could damage its reputation.
The management of the Federal University Oye-Ekiti has suspended two students with immediate effect over allegations that they cyberbullied the institution's suspended Students' Union Government (SUG) President, James Iyanuoluwa Adio.
The decision was announced in a statement published on the university's official news platform on Friday and signed by the Acting Vice-Chancellor, Prof Tajudeen Opoola, who also serves as the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Administration).
According to the university, the affected students, Alao Iyanuoluwa Odunayo and Olawale Abiodun Samuel, allegedly conspired to cyberbully Adio by disseminating details of his private life on social media after he reportedly failed to meet certain financial demands made by them.
