A source said, “The others are TETFUND officials who were on an official assignment at the Oke-Ogun Polytechnic, Saki. The team also included a staff of The Polytechnic Ibadan.
“We were able to identify Kola Oladunjoye, our past Head of Department of Architecture. He travelled to Oke-Ogun Polytechnic, Saki for a programme. He went with a professional team.”
Efforts to get a reaction from the Federal Road Safety Corps in the state proved abortive as a telephone call to the Sector Commander, Uche Chukwurah, was not successful.
A text message sent to her had not been replied to as of the time of filing this report.
The Public Relations Officer of The Polytechnic, Ibadan, Alhaji Soladoye Adewole, confirmed the death of the immediate past Head of Department of Architecture of the institution.
