The statement said the students suspected of having taken part in the alleged crime had been expelled and handed over to the police for prosecution.
Atoyebi said, “Contrary to what is trending, the university affirms that there is no cultism in the institution, just as the university has zero tolerance for any sort of anti-societal vices and misconduct.
“It is important to stress that the expelled students do not belong to any cult group.”
