The institution further stated that it has not authorized any individual, group, agent, or organization to secure admission on behalf of candidates and warned prospective students against patronizing admission touts.
Management reiterated that candidates who engage the services of fraudsters do so at their own risk and will be solely responsible for any consequences arising from such actions.
The University has also drawn the attention of relevant law enforcement agencies to the activities of these suspected scammers and urged the public to remain vigilant.
Meanwhile, AE-FUNAI confirmed that its 2026 Post-UTME registration exercise is currently ongoing and that interested candidates should follow only the official admission procedures published by the University.
Prospective applicants are advised to obtain accurate information regarding admission requirements, eligibility, registration procedures, and deadlines exclusively through the University's official admission portal.
