A GEM IS GONE!
A GEM IS GONE!
It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing away of ASFI Deputy Director, Prof. Charles Ayo. Prof. Ayo passed away during the early hours of 3rd August 2023 after a brief illness.
Until his death, Prof. Ayo was a professor of Computer Science and the Vice Chancellor of Trinity University, Lagos, Nigeria. He was the Vice-Chancellor of Covenant University, Nigeria, between 2012 and 2016.
He was a scholar per excellence and was a Senior Fulbright Research Scholar and an Awardee of the Ford Foundation for Teaching and Innovations.
Within the ASFI network, he was the architect of the ongoing ASFIScholar, a platform being developed for transformation of digital learning and scholarship in Africa. We were on top of this project before his death. The death of Prof. Ayo is a great loss to the ASFI family and the research and academic community across Africa.
Rest in peace Prof. Ayo. We will miss you.
Please remember his family and those he left behind in your prayers.
