The University of Ibadan Students’ Union Electoral Commission (SUEC) has invited students who encountered difficulties during the ongoing accreditation exercise for the 2026/2027 Students’ Union electoral process to submit complaints through an online form.
In an announcement to the university community, the commission urged students with complaints, concerns, or accreditation-related challenges to document their experiences through a designated Google Form to ensure their concerns reach it.
The invitation comes as the university’s Students’ Union election accreditation exercise commenced on Monday, 12 October, following a memorandum issued by the Student Affairs Division on Friday, 9 October 2026.
According to the memorandum, signed by the Deputy Registrar (Students), Francesca I. Ayodele, the accreditation exercise will run until midnight on Sunday, 18 October 2026.
The memorandum, with reference number S.A.D./SUE/26/002, announced the commencement of accreditation following a meeting of electoral commissioners held on Tuesday, 6 October.
The exercise requires undergraduate students to log in using their University of Ibadan email addresses, while postgraduate students are to use the email addresses provided during their postgraduate registration.
Addressing possible access difficulties, the Student Affairs Division outlined procedures for undergraduates who need to reset their university email passwords.
Students who have enabled two-step verification on their accounts were advised to use the self-service option to reset their passwords. Those who have not enabled the feature were directed to send password-reset requests to studentportal2@stu.ui.edu.ng.
The memorandum further advised students to reset their passwords before the election to avoid access difficulties and directed those unable to reset their passwords through the prescribed procedures to visit the Management Information Systems (MIS) unit.
Meanwhile, SUEC urged students who experienced problems during accreditation to submit their complaints through the designated form, saying the submissions would document their concerns and bring them to the commission’s attention.
The invitation provides an avenue for affected students to report their experiences as the accreditation window remains open. However, the commission’s announcement did not specify the nature or number of complaints received, nor did it indicate whether the form would lead to individual resolutions or changes to the accreditation process.
Students who encounter difficulties can submit their complaints through the form provided by SUEC: https://forms.gle/3DYE8AEETcQPGYRH8.
With accreditation scheduled to close at midnight on 18 October, students are expected to complete the process within the stipulated period and report any challenges through the available channel.
