The institution categorically stated that it had not authorised any individual, group, agent or third party to advertise, process or collect money on its behalf for admission into any of its academic programmes, including Nursing.

Management warned that anyone who deals with such fraudsters does so at his or her own risk, and urged the public to disregard the fraudulent advertisements and avoid making payments or submitting personal information to individuals or platforms promoting the illegal scheme.

Dennis Osadebay University clarified that all admission information for the 2026/2027 academic session would only be released through its official communication channels and approved platforms. Prospective applicants were advised to verify all admission related information directly with the university before taking any action.

The institution disclosed that it had already reported the matter to the appropriate security agencies for investigation and prosecution of those behind the fraudulent activity.

Reaffirming its commitment to transparency and due process, the university urged members of the public to remain vigilant and exercise caution when responding to admission advertisements circulating on social media and other unofficial platforms.

Management reiterated that only information published through official university channels should be considered authentic and assured prospective students of a fair and transparent admission exercise for the 2026/2027 academic session.
