The management of the Alvan Ikoku Federal University of Education (AIFUED) has observed with grave concern the rising incidents of fraudulent activities, extortion, and unauthorized collection of school fees, charges, and levies.

This memo serves as a strict disclaimer and warning to all students and the general public regarding the proper and legal channels for making payments to the institution.

All legitimate payments (school fees, acceptance fees, hostel fees, departmental dues, etc.) must be made exclusively through the payment gateways approved by the institution.

Do not pay cash, transfer funds, or give money to any individual, student representative, lecturer, or unauthorized third party claiming to act on behalf of the institution or the Bursary Department.

The institution will not take responsibility for any financial loss incurred by any student or parent who chooses to transact through unauthorized channels or individuals.

To completely safeguard yourself against fraud, please adhere to the following:

Official Enquiries:

Every enquiry, clarification, or issue regarding payments must be directed exclusively to the Bursary Department. Do not rely on unverified social media handles, phone numbers, or third‑party agents.

If you are approached by anyone demanding cash payments or offering "fast‑track" payment services outside the approved system, please report them immediately to the security unit or the Bursary Department.

Your cooperation is vital in maintaining a fraud‑free environment for everyone.

Signed:

Dr. Stephen E. Ndili, FCA
