The Michael And Cecilia Ibru University has acted in line With The News of Fake Professorship Surrounding The Appointment of Professor Anthony Kila, Who was Reported By Premium Times as at 3rd, October, 2026 That His Academic Title of Professorship is fake and not verifiable, allegedly.

Though the Univeriity didnt say how long Professor Anthony Kila's Suspension may last, but  says, it took the decision in line with its commitment to “academic integrity, transparency, and the highest standards of institutional governance.”

In keeping with the University’s commitment to academic integrity, transparency, and the highest standards of institutional governance, Anthony Kila has been requested to step aside from his responsibilities as Pro-Chancellor while the issues raised are being addressed, investigated, and findings concluded. This decision reflects the University’s responsibility to safeguard the integrity of its governance process and preserve the confidence of its students, staff, parents, regulators and the wider public.”

 

Mr Kila had told PREMIUM TIMES that the European Centre for Advanced and Professional Studies (ECAPS), which he said was based in Cambridge, United Kingdom, awarded him the professorship in 2016.

 

However, PREMIUM TIMES’ checks found no evidence that the institution exists, including searches of the UK Companies House, Nigeria’s Corporate Affairs Commission and other publicly available sources.

 

The newspaper also reported that the European Education and Culture Executive Agency, which administers the European Union’s Jean Monnet programme, did not list Mr Kila as a Jean Monnet project coordinator.

Mr Kila subsequently rejected the description of him as a “fake professor”, insisting that he remained a professor and stood by the credentials on which his professorial title was based.
