Just a week after the UNILAG Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Babatunde Sofoluwe, died of a heart attack, University of Lagos has lost a lecturer in the Department of Creative Arts, Chief E.A Bassey.
Bassey died on Saturday of stress, old age and heart attack
His death threw the institution into a fresh round of mourning, as it was still making arrangements for the burial of the late VC.
Bassey's death leaves question marks, whether an urgent need for the review of the retirement age of lecturers and civil servants in general is needed, and perhaps compulsory, regular check-ups, and a review of the medical profile of aging lecturers will also be a good idea.
Bassey had served as head of the department and senior lecturer at the department before his death.
