The Division of Student Affairs (DSA), Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile-Ife, has released a special directive to all students who received accommodation through manual allocation. The notice urges these students to make the necessary payments within the approved timeframe or risk losing their allocated bed spaces.
In the notice dated 12 January, the DSA clarified that students assigned accommodation during the period the e-portal was down for maintenance must complete their payments strictly through the university’s e-portal. The Division emphasised that no other payment channels will be recognised.
This release follows the recent temporary shutdown of the school e-portal for maintenance, which began around 24 November. This situation, previously reported by OAUPeeps, prevented many students from accessing the portal to register courses and pay fees until its restoration on 19 December 2025.
The deadline for affected students to complete their payment is Monday, 19 January. After payment, students are expected to submit their bed space clearance forms at the Division of Student Affairs for proper documentation and endorsement.
Furthermore, students whose manually allocated bed spaces are yet to appear on their e-portal accounts are directed to report to Room 4, Division of Student Affairs, on or before 16 January. These students must bring valid proof of school charges payment, specifically their clearance certificate.
The Division emphasised that failure to comply with these instructions within the stipulated deadlines will result in the automatic forfeiture of the allocated bed spaces.
