The Directorate of Information & Corporate Affairs Ekiti State University has alerted members of the public of one Dr Sylvester using 07040633887 on watsapp platform and posing as the EKSU Vice Chancellor, Prof Edward Olanipekun in a bid to defraud unsuspecting members of the public.
The suspect is currently acting like an intermediary asking people to prepare and submit quotations to the Chairman, Ministry Tenders Board, Federal Ministry of Education, Abuja, for the supply of laptops worth #86 million.
A Statement by the Head of Public Relations and Corporate Affairs of the School, Mr Bode Olofinmuagun calls on members of the public to disregard and have no deal with the said number which he described as a scam.
“Obviously, this is an attempt to dupe people and to drag the name of our Vice Chancellor into a dubious business deal. It is hereby emphasized that the Vice Chancellor, Professor Edward Olanipekun does not have any relationship with the said Dr Sylvester and
anyone who transacts business with him under this guise does so at his/her own risk please“
