A crisis that broke out between Students Union and Management of the Oyo State College of Education, has led to the indefinite closure of the school.
The students union had undertaken a protest because the school management had failed to provide them with identity cards and also, because the school was close to some bushes, animals have been attacking them during class hours.
They were therefore protesting for better services in the school. This was confirmed by the leader of the students union, Olaitan Muhammad.
However, Adeniyi Jolaoso has denied the allegations saying that some staff unions influenced the protests.
Below is a statement released by the management of the school;
“The college management wishes to assure that it charges one of the lowest school fees in the country, in consonance with the directive of the Governor Seyi Makinde-led administration and payment of all fees is made into the Treasury Single Account (TSA) of the Oyo State Government.
“So, there are no outrageous fees charged by the college. Any demand for any payment other than that into the Treasury Single Account should be reported immediately.
“Students are also encouraged to pick up their ID cards that have been lying down ready for collection at the Student Affairs office while those who are yet to undertake their photo capture for the student ID card should approach the schedule officer at the ICT and collect their ID card not later than one week after the capture.”
