Michael and Cecilia Ibru University in Delta State has removed the online profile of its Pro-Chancellor, Anthony Kila, from its official website. The decision comes in the wake of ongoing allegations regarding Kila’s academic credentials, specifically claims that he is a "fake professor."
The removal of the profile page marks a visible institutional response to the controversy surrounding the Pro-Chancellor’s status. While the university has taken this digital step, the source material does not provide further details on the specific administrative actions taken or the timeline for the removal.
The incident has drawn attention to questions about the verification of academic titles held by senior university officials in Nigeria. The term "fake professor" suggests a dispute over whether Kila possesses the legitimate qualifications required for his role, although the specific nature of the allegations is not detailed in the available report.
As the situation develops, the university’s website no longer displays Kila’s professional biography or contact information, effectively distancing the institution’s public digital presence from the individual at the center of the dispute.
