A Professor of English at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, Professor Felix Nnadozie Inyama, is dead.
Inyama’s passing adds to the number of Academics who have passed in the past two weeks. About five of them have passed in quick succession.
Family sources say Prof. Inyama passed on January 12, in Abuja, where he went for a conference. He had a long battle with diabetes, which inexplicably shot up as soon as he arrived Abuja, in company with his wife and daughter.
Aged 74, he was a native of Akurubi, Itu, Ezinihitte, Mbaise, Imo State.
Married to Scholar, a Chief Nursing Officer at the UNN Clinic, both had five accomplished children.
