The Public Relations Officer (P.R.O.) of Rufus Giwa Polytechnic, Owo, Mr. Ojo Samuel has enjoined the students and members of the Polytechnic's community to discard any strike insinuation in the institution, as he also sounded a strong warning to individuals peddling such rumours.
According to the Information Manager who spoke to the Press Council during an exclusive interview in the early hours of Monday, 12th of July, 2021, the institution is not on strike and there are no plans for any industrial action in the polytechnic.
Mr. Ojo, however, explained that the recent postponement of the institution's 2020/2021 academic session's matriculation exercise was to allow admission of students seeking admission into the current academic session, because admission is on going in the institution.
Ojo who said the new date for matriculation will be disclosed soon, assured that the date slated for the first semester examination remains constant, as there are no plans to postpone it.
He added that, 'RUGIPO may have been practicing a one round (Uniform) examination for the past three sessions, this present session will be different, as students who are present in the institution will write their exams before the returning SIWES students.
He advised all students to always debunk fake news, rumors and false information, because they always create unnecessary tension within the institution's community.
