He was one of the Advisory Council Members and they have been marvelous. Unfortunately, himself and Prof. Peter Okuneye have left. The vacumm that has been created is great and the pain in my heart is unimaginable. It is a great loss to us. However, we take solace in the fact that God knows better what He has done”.
