He added that eight HND 2 students were also suspended by the polytechnic management for two academic sessions while former students union leadership were banned from entering the two campuses of the institution with immediate effect.

The School spokesperson stated that “you would recall that the management of the Federal Polytechnic, Ede, Osun State constituted an investigation committee to unravel the miseries surrounding the Student’s crisis/rampage of Thursday, May 9th, 2024 leading to the stoning of people at the senior staff club”.

“The unprovoked attitude led to the vandalization of individual and institution’s properties. This unwarranted action negates the motto of the great citadel which is “KNOWLEDGE, SKILL AND CHARACTER which the institution is known for, he explained.
