The Public Relations Officer of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), Comrade Adeyemi Samson Ajasa has urgently called on the management of Babcock University, Ilisan-Remo, Ogun State to prioritize the immediate provision and comprehensive information regarding the whereabouts of Oladipupo Siwajuola, a student of the university who has been missing on campus for over 72 hours.
NANS stands with the family of Mr. Oladipupo Siwajuola during this deeply concerning period and believes that a transparent and proactive approach from Babcock University is crucial for a swift resolution. We urge the university administration to recognize the legitimate anxieties of the students body (NANS) and the wider community by promptly releasing a detailed official statement outlining the known circumstances of Mr. Siwajuola’s disappearance and the specific steps taken since the report has been made by the mother of the student.
Furthermore, NANS encourages Babcock University to provide clear and verifiable updates on the ongoing efforts to locate Mr. Siwajuola, including transparent communication regarding collaborations with law enforcement agencies and the progress of any internal inquiries. Demonstrating tangible action and a commitment to open communication will be vital in reassuring the concerned public and fostering trust.
NANS also emphasizes the importance of outlining concrete measures being implemented to ensure the safety and security of all students within the university environment. This proactive approach will not only address the current situation but also contribute to a more secure learning environment for the future.
To facilitate a constructive path forward, we urge the management of the University to prioritize these actions within the next 48hours. Openness, transparency, and demonstrable efforts are key to a positive resolution and in upholding the university’s responsibility towards her students.
The safe return of Oladipupo Siwajuola is very paramount to us as the national students body leadership, and NANS expects a responsive and responsible approach from the management of Babcock University during this critical time.
Yours in the pursuit of a safe and secure learning environment,
