Prof. Toyin Falola
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyin_Falola
is too accomplished to pay even one Kobo for the Honorary Doctorate Degree of any university in the world.
It an honour to any university he accepts their Honorary Doctorate Degree.

A university in the UK nominated me for an Honorary Doctorate Degree and I made inquiries before accepting the nomination.
It was totally unsolicited. And I am not even an academic scholar. So, anyone saying an international academic luminary like Prof. Toyin Falola paid for the Honorary Doctorate Degree of a local university in NIgeria is either insane or stupid.

I sont know about the rest, but definitely not Toyin Falola. I read his books and journal articles for my Masters. He has been a Prof. In Texas for over 15 years.

That's juat my point below. Toyin Falola? Who dares say that? Do people really know who this man is? When he sneezes in University of Texas, White fellows panic.

Professor Toyin Falola, Professor of African History and Jacob and Frances Sanger MossikerChair in the Humanities at the University of Texas at Austin, USA: Doctor of Letters (Honoris Causa) is an accomplished scholar.
What does he need an Honorary Doctorate Degree for? shocked
.

You need to understudy the average black man. There is something fundamental about him.

Best thing to do is to investigate. Don't vouch for anyone especially a Nigerian.

No tangible proof to solidify this claim. the prof really has loads of hurdles to cross and billions of enemies to overcome right from his selection / elevation to the VC position

The good Lord shall surely strengthen him & shame his distractors

Waste side professors and criminal tendency are like dicck and pusssy , they go together.

Not surprised sha, our next incoming president is from the waste side and a legendary thief at that.

The side that used over three million stubborn goats from your side for pepper soup and suya. It's a nightmare that has been passed from generation to generation. You will never get over it. One of your sisters at FUTO recently sold Professorship of Cybersecurity to Isa Pantami who has PhD in Management after Pantami's fellow Almajaris in ABTU rejected him.

how can a professor pay to be awarded an honorary doctorate degree? Does it even make an iota of sense?
What exactly is there to investigate?

Exactly. It also doesn't make sense when a sitting governor stuffs dollars into his babariga.

I repeat don't trust Nigerians. He might be exonerate. He might not be. If they have accused the VC, then let the investigation run its course.

ur analogy is wrong. Governors are they to steal, to recoup money they spent during election. To be a Prof, u have to be a Doc first (PhD). So I ask, how can a professor pay money to be awarded an honorary doctorate degree, when he was long a doc before becoming Prof?

Governors are there to steal. So we can as well equate governorship = stealing. Nice analogy from you.

Please, pray tell: have you confirmed the position of this issue from him?
