A letter of condolences signed by the Vice-Chancellor was also delivered to Governor Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa, and the family, conveying the deepest condolences of the OAUSTECH community.

The OAUSTECH team, including members of the Governing Council and Management, also signed a condolence register at the Governor’s Office, Alagbaka, Akure.

The university’s Registrar, Mr. Peter Okunniga, wrote in the condolence register: “You were an astute administrator and politician. OAUSTECH will miss your wisdom and contributions. RIP.”

The OAUSTECH community prays that God grants the family, friends, and the entire state the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss. May Hon. Oluwatuyi’s legacy continues to inspire us to strive for excellence.
