The management of Emmanuel Alayande University of Education, Oyo, has issued a stern warning to students, directing them to immediately disengage from all NeoLife-related activities over allegations of illegal recruitment, harassment, and academic disruption on campus.
The directive was contained in an internal memorandum released by the university’s Students’ Affairs Division and dated January 7, 2026. The memo, signed by the Dean of Students’ Affairs, Dr. Wole Akinlabi, was addressed to all students of the institution.
According to the statement, the university became aware of what it described as illegal activities by a group called NeoLife, which has allegedly been recruiting students to join its business operations. Management said the conduct of the organisation has been humiliating to students and has negatively affected their academic progress.
The university disclosed that several students who joined the group and later attempted to opt out reportedly faced harassment and torment, prompting decisive action by the authorities to protect students’ welfare and learning environment.

As part of the directive, students have been ordered to stop working with NeoLife immediately and to cease recruiting fellow students both on and off campus. The management warned that any student found working for or recruiting on behalf of NeoLife after the notice would face disciplinary measures.
For students who are already members of the organisation, the university gave a deadline of January 30, 2026, to formally quit and resign their membership. The memo advised affected students who require guidance or assistance in disengaging from the group to contact the office of the Dean of Students’ Affairs.
The university further emphasized that it would not tolerate involvement in NeoLife-related activities going forward, adding that measures had been put in place to identify and sanction erring students.
The development has sparked widespread reactions among students, with the memo circulating rapidly on social media platforms and drawing attention to growing concerns over on-campus recruitment by external organisations.
University authorities reiterated their commitment to prioritising students’ safety, academic focus, and overall well-being, urging all students to comply fully with the directive to avoid sanctions.
