It will be recalled that an on line news platform- not Newdawnngr.com,published a report earlier today of resignation of the Professor of History and in his place his former Deputy,Professor Adeniran has been nominated to replace him pending the ratification of the Yoruba World Congress scheduled to take place in the new year.
Professor Akintoye has been on exile for close to two years now following threat to his life in the wake of attacks on Yoruba activist,Chief Sunday Adeyemo aka Sunday Igboho who has been on exile in neighbouring Republic of Benin.
