“ The purported announcement even went as far as directing admission seekers to a phantom website on which to upload their eligibility details .
“ We want to state categorically that the University of Ilorin is yet to commence any screening for the 2017 /2018 admission exercise . In fact , we are yet to release the cut - off marks for this year ’ s admission exercise .
