An Emeritus Professor of Transport Planning and Development, Michael
Filani, died on Sunday while watching the Nigeria/Ethiopia World Cup
qualifying match. The deceased, who was a former deputy vice-chancellor
of the University of Ibadan (UI), slumped and died while watching the
match at his Oluyole Extension home in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital. He
hailed from Ikole-Ekiti. His death was received with shock by the
university community yesterday. Many people said he was agile and
radiant at his last public outing. The late Filani had 32 years of
experience in teaching and research. In the last 37 years, he served in
various capacities within and outside U.I.
