Gombe State University Management has dismissed a purported internal memorandum circulating on social media that announces a strike by the Joint Unions of the University.

The document, which directs students to vacate the institution’s hostels, is considered fake by the University.

In a Special Bulletin dated Monday, August 10, 2026, the University stated that the circulated document did not emanate from the Registrar’s Office or the Management of Gombe State University.

• The document is fake and did not originate from the University.
• The University urges staff, students, parents, and members of the public to disregard the fake document.
• The public is advised to refrain from sharing or acting on the information contained in the fake document.

The University further assured its community that accurate and timely information would continue to be communicated through its official communication channels.

Management also expressed regret over any confusion or concern caused by the fake document and advised members of the university community to rely only on verified official communications.

The disclaimer was signed by Hadu Naphtali Ligari, Public Relations Officer, Gombe State University.
