UNICAL raises alarm over fake ‘Professor’ demanding money from students

The University of Calabar (UNICAL) has issued a warning about an impostor claiming to be a professor named ‘Prof. Odong’ who contacts students to demand money, claiming he can help improve their exam results. The university confirmed that no staff member by that name exists and that the individual is operating from Iseyin in Oyo State. Students are advised to ignore such messages, not to share personal or exam information, and to report any contact to university authorities, with sanctions for unethical practices.
