Professor Elujoba Is Alive, Stop The Death Rumour
Professor Anthony Elujoba.

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.

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”.

In a press statement, Abiodun Olarewaju, Public Relations Officer, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife said: “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 to the hospital, it is heartwarming 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 the quick recovery of the erudite scholar.
