The National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN), Ekiti Chapter, has vowed to embark on a mass protest at the main campus of Federal University Oye-Ekiti (FUOYE), on Monday November 3, 2025 over allegations of abuse of office against the Vice-Chancellor of the university, Prof. Abayomi Sunday Fasina.

Announcing this in a statement jointly signed by the Chairman of the chapter and General Secretary, Comrades Segun Bankole and Silas Olawale respectfully, NYCN said its Ekiti office would be temporarily relocated to the main campus of FUOYE to prosecute the protest until the demands of young people in the State are met.

The Youth Council said the Monday protest is coming after exhausting all official channels, noting that NYCN Ekiti Chapter had submitted a detailed petition to the Presidency, relevant ministries, and national anti-corruption and security agencies, exposing the “corruption and moral decay threatening Federal University Oye-Ekiti”.

NYCN in the statement insisted on its demands for non-negotiable suspension of Prof. Fasina and removal of Sen. Victor Ndoma-Egba (SAN) as Council Chairman.

The Council also called for an independent investigation of all sexual abuse cases and prosecution of offenders, suspension of the current Vice Chancellorship selection process and forensic audit of FUOYE finances since 2021 as well as restoration of lawful governance and protection for whistleblowers.

“This peaceful protest is to show President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as visitor to FUOYE, that Nigerian youth will not tolerate corruption, moral decay, or injustice in our institutions,” NYCN added.

Parts of the statement read: “We have waited long enough. The time for action is now. Effective Monday, 3rd November 2025, NYCN Ekiti will relocate its operational headquarters to FUOYE Main Campus.

“We will remain there in peaceful mass protest until our demands are met. We call on all Nigerian youth, students, and civil society groups to join us to end impunity and restore integrity in FUOYE.” (The Nation)
