News Investigators/ The Federal University Dutse (FUD), Jigawa, has urged the public to disregard a fake webpage purportedly designed for 2025/2026 admission into the institution.
This is contained in a statement by the university’s acting Director of Public Affairs, Abdullahi Yahaya-Bello, on Tuesday in Dutse.
Mr Yahaya-Bello said that the attention of the management of the university had been drawn to a cloned institution’s website address and private mail bag, which was being used to scam unsuspecting admission seekers of their hard-earned money.
According to him, the admission process at the university has not started.
“We only advertised our cut-off mark last week, and we are yet to announce a date for Post-UTME Screening.
“The university has an established channel of communication through its verified official website and official social media handles, and prospective applicants should only rely on these sources for information,” he said.
He urged applicants to ignore the fake phone numbers displayed on the fake website, adding that admission into the university is strictly based on merit and established JAMB admission criteria.
“We don’t collect money for admission, so beware.
“Parents, guardians, and applicants should take note of fake webpages and avoid being a victim of admission scammers,” he warned.
