No reason was immediately given for the university authorities' actions.

Ogunleye said: “This is to inform the University Community and the general public that the underlisted students have been expelled from the University.”

He said: “We have the reasons with us but we can’t put it on the website and the public. They’ve all faced a disciplinary committee, having infringed on the rules and regulations of the university, as contained in the students’ handbook.

“The offences warranted expulsion, that’s why the panel expelled them.”

Legit.ng recalls that some students of Bowen University, Iwo, Osun state, staged a protest against the directive of the management that they must undergo a drug test.

The management is, however, insisting that the affected students must face disciplinary action.
