The management of Osun State Polytechnic, Iree, has raised a security alert, cautioning students and staff members to remain indoors from 9:00 p.m. daily in response to emerging security concerns in the area.
This was disclosed in an internal memorandum dated October 7, 2027, and signed by the Registrar, R. I. Adebayo, on behalf of the institution’s management.
According to the memo, the warning was prompted by intelligence reports indicating the suspected presence of Fulani herdsmen around Iree and neighboring communities, potentially endangering the safety of residents.
“The entire Polytechnic Community, especially students, are hereby informed to stay indoors anytime from 9:00 p.m. in Iree and its environs.
“This alertness and security awareness arose based on intelligence gathering from the community on the possible presence of some Fulani herdsmen which may likely pose possible security threat that is likely to endanger your movement,” the memo stated.
The management further advised students to be vigilant, refrain from unnecessary nighttime movements, and report any suspicious activity or perceived threat to the institution’s Chief Security Officer through the following contacts: 07033166585 and 07034557451 for swift intervention.
