Authorities of Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife have dispelled rumour making the rounds that a former acting Vice Chancellor of the institution, Professor Anthony Elujoba was dead.

The university however said ” It’s true that he had an auto crash and he has been on admission in the hospital.”

See the full statement  below:

ELUJOBA IS ALIVE, STOP THE DEATH RUMOUR.

The attention of the authorities of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Osun State, has been drawn to an unfounded rumour making the rounds in the social media that a former acting Vice Chancellor of the University, Professor Anthony ELUJOBA is dead.

A release by the Public Relations Officer of the University, Abiodun Olarewaju, stated that the rumour was not only false but wicked, malicious, unfortunate and downright satanic. Most unfortunate was that a few conventional media houses also aired the rumours on their frequency modulation, abandoning the age – long media maxim of ” if in doubt, leave out”.

To put the record straight, Professor Anthony ELUJOBA is NOT dead. It’s true that he had an auto crash and he has been on admission in the hospital, it is heart warming to know that he is responding to treatment.

We, therefore, want the general public to disregard, in its entirety, the malicious rumour and be praying for quick recovery of the erudite scholar.

Abiodun Olarewaju,
Public Relations Officer,
Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife.
