In a formal statement released by Adejoke R. Alaga-Ibraheem, Head of the Communication Unit, the university expressed concern over rumours circulating online and via email suggesting mishandling of the screening process.
“The University of Lagos notes, with concern, the circulation of various insinuations and claims in e-mails and reports on social media platforms, following the 2025/2026 Post-UTME screening exercise that held from September 1-4, 2025,” the statement read.
The university clarified that any notifications regarding malpractice sent to candidates were not due to system failures or technical glitches. Instead, they were part of the institution’s standard screening procedures designed to ensure a fair and credible assessment for all applicants.
