In a statement on late  Thursday Signed by Comrade John B. Ogar, Head of Media, Office of the Vice-Chancellor, the university described the rumors as “baseless and unfounded”, orchestrated by “mischief makers and ignoramuses”.

According to the statement, Prof. Obi is currently on approved leave and has not been removed from her position. The university assured the public that the Vice-Chancellor’s leave has not created a vacuum, as she handed over to Prof. Peter Okafor, one of her Deputy Vice-Chancellors, to act in her absence.

The statement reads in parts:” The Office of the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Calabar has dispel the recent rumors regarding the purported sacking of Prof. Florence Banku Obi, our esteemed Vice-Chancellor. 

“We categorically state that these speculations are entirely baseless and unfounded as they are orchestrated by mischief makers and ignoramous.
