A lecturer in the Department of Quantity Surveying at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile Ife, simply identified as Dr. Mrs Akintola, has died.

It was gathered that she died on Monday after giving birth to a set of twins.

The Public Relations Officer of the university, Abiodun Olanrewaju, confirmed Akintola’s death in a telephone conversation with Punch.

He, however, did not give details of the incident.

He said: “Unfortunately, the story is true. The details are not palatable. She gave birth to a set of twins. And there were complications thereafter.

“She was treated only to give up the ghost on Monday morning.”
