The attention of Management of the University of Maiduguri has been drawn to several Facebook accounts created by some yet-to-be-identified persons bearing the personal and official particulars of the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Aliyu Shugaba.
Such unscrupulous persons have been using the fictitious accounts to deliberately embarrass him or compromise the integrity of the Office of the Vice-Chancellor by making fraudulent offers to or soliciting undue favours from unsuspecting members of the public.
Although Professor Shugaba has a personal Facebook account, he has never used it to transact any form of business or offer help or assistance to any individual or group in either his individual capacity or on behalf of the University While the University Management is closely working with relevant security agencies to fish out the culprits, members of the public are hereby advised to ignore, or draw the attention of the University or any relevant authority to the activities of persons or groups trying to use Facebook or other social media platforms to make an offer, or transact any form of business in the name of the Vice-Chancellor or the University Maiduguri
