Professor Oluwatoyin Ogundipe, the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Lagos, UNILAG has dismissed the announcement of his sack, adding that he remains the Vice-Chancellor of the institution.
The embattled Vice-Chancellor, in a statement, said his removal was a figment of the Registrar’s imagination.
