There is a popular saying which goes this way, “A man without enemies is an enemy to himself, because he lacks courage and determination to accomplish what can attract enemies of progress”. We are therefore not surprised that enemies of Imo State University (IMSU) Management’s progress, under the able leadership of Professor U. U. Chukwumaeze, SAN, FCArb, have resorted to all forms of attack against the Management with the aim of damaging IMSU Management’s reputation, misinforming the public, and undermining the University’s credibility.
Some of the propaganda tools and misinformation campaigns these disgruntled elements and their paid collaborators deployed against Management of Imo State University are, but not limited to, the recent AI-manipulated viral video about IMSU, video/picture of leaking roof of lecture theater, publication at Frontline Express Newspaper with the title: “IMSU’s Lamentable Delay in Releasing Results: Graduates Await NYSC Clearance”, just to mention a few, are nothing but distorted snippet that misrepresents the true state of affairs at Imo State University.

There is a popular saying which goes this way, “A man without enemies is an enemy to himself, because he lacks courage and determination to accomplish what can attract enemies of progress”. We are therefore not surprised that enemies of Imo State University (IMSU) Management’s progress, under the able leadership of Professor U. U. Chukwumaeze, SAN, FCArb, have resorted to all forms of attack against the Management with the aim of damaging IMSU Management’s reputation, misinforming the public, and undermining the University’s credibility.
Some of the propaganda tools and misinformation campaigns these disgruntled elements and their paid collaborators deployed against Management of Imo State University are, but not limited to, the recent AI-manipulated viral video about IMSU, video/picture of leaking roof of lecture theater, publication at Frontline Express Newspaper with the title: “IMSU’s Lamentable Delay in Releasing Results: Graduates Await NYSC Clearance”, just to mention a few, are nothing but distorted snippet that misrepresents the true state of affairs at Imo State University.
Some of the questions begging for answers are: What do the architects of this AI-Manipulated Video and other propaganda tools aimed at misinforming the public stand to gain by directly or indirectly destroying the integrity and reputation of the Visitor to Imo State University, His Excellency, Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodimma, CON, (Onwa), and the Management of Imo State University, ably led by Professor U. U. Chukwumaeze, SAN, FCArb?
How is it possible that the acclaimed “reporter”, who is identified as a popular cyclist in Lagos State, mysteriously found himself in the city of Owerri/Imo State University, riding the same bicycle he is known for in Lagos State, and at the same time showcasing building roofs at Imo State University? Why is it that only abandoned and dilapidated buildings were shown by these enemies of progress, leaving other magnificent buildings in the University, such as the Senate Building, Faculty of Social Sciences Building, Faculty of Humanities Building, Faculty of Law Building, Faculty of Education Building, and others too numerous to mention? Indeed, “What joblessness, selfishness, desperation, and envy can not do to disgruntled elements, and their paid collaborators does not exist “.
It is important to recognize that such AI-generated content is increasingly sophisticated and designed to deceive, often created by disgruntled elements and their paid collaborators, aiming to manipulate public opinion and sow discord.
Artificial Intelligence tools now enable the creation of highly realistic videos that can blur the line between fact and fiction. These videos can be photorealistic, follow physical laws, and sync audio convincingly, making them difficult to detect without advanced technology. The intent behind such manipulations is often malicious, exploiting emotions and beliefs for selfish gain.
This AI-generated footage and the latest sugarcoated lies published at Frontline Express Newspaper, about “delay in releasing results”, by repeatedly failed propagandists and their paid collaborators, do not reflect the context or reality at IMSU. It is a misleading portrayal that omits critical facts and nuances, thereby fostering uncertainty and mistrust among the public. Such misinformation campaigns can damage reputations, disrupt peace, and undermine the University’s credibility.
To prove that these are deliberate efforts to tarnish the image of IMSU management and deceive the public, why did these retrogressive elements in our society who resorted to campaign of calumny against IMSU management fail to provide evidence of those students whose results are delayed and by implication prevented from going for NYSC (as they alleged), such as their Names, Departments, Faculties, Year of Admissions, Possible Year of Graduations, among other details to enable the public to embark on facts findings?
This is yet another failed attempt to misinform the stakeholders and the general public by enemies of the record-breaking achievements of Imo State University Management, ably led by Professor Chukwumaeze.
Stakeholders are therefore advised to exercise caution, verify information through official channels, and reject content that lacks authenticity. Imo State University Management remains committed to transparency and will always provide accurate updates to dispel any false narratives.
The video in question and the publication in Frontline Express Newspaper, being sponsored by faceless individuals, disgruntled/unrepentant corrupt elements who are choked and negatively affected by Professor Chukwumaeze’s fight against corruption in the University, are a deliberate manipulation aimed at distorting the truth about IMSU. This is evidence of corruption fighting back. It is essential to critically assess such content and support factual discourse to preserve trust and harmony in the University.
Meanwhile, in the myriad of higher institutions in Nigeria, few leaders stand out for their unwavering commitment to excellence, innovation, and community engagement. The Vice-Chancellor of Imo State University, Owerri, Prof Uchefula U. Chukwumaeze, SAN, FCArb, is a distinguished academic whose leadership style is defined by focus, proactivity, and a rare ability to balance criticism and thoughtful deliberation with decisive action.
Prof Chukwumaeze’s journey as a leader is a testament to the power of visionary thinking. Colleagues and students alike recount his penchant for anticipating challenges before they arise and crafting strategies that drive sustainable progress. At Imo State University, he is known for:
Strategic Foresight: Mapping out long-term goals that align with the University’s vision and mission.
Analytical Approach: Weighing options carefully before making significant decisions.
Innovation: Encouraging research and creative problem-solving among staff and students.
A hallmark of Prof Chukwumaeze’s leadership is his attentive ear. He believes that every voice matters and that the best solutions often emerge from constructive criticism and inclusive dialogue. His open-door policy has fostered a culture of trust and collaboration, evidenced by:
Regular Stakeholder Forums: Engaging staff, students, and community members in meaningful conversations.
Mentorship Programs: Providing guidance and support to staff and students.
Conflict Resolution: Addressing concerns with patience and understanding, ensuring all parties feel heard.
Prof Chukwumaeze is not content with mere plans; he is a leader of action. His tenure as the Vice-Chancellor of IMO State University has been marked by the timely implementation of initiatives that have transformed the institution’s academic and social landscape.
The University Management hereby advises the general public to disregard the AI-Manipulated and misleading Video as well as other propaganda tools by enemies of Imo State University Management’s progress, because those behind it are frustrated by His Excellency, Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodimma’s Huge investment in Education, which is manifested in the record-breaking success stories from Imo State University, almost daily since the last two and a half years, under the able leadership of Professor U. U. Chukwumaeze, SAN, FCArb, Vice-Chancellor of Imo State University.
Prof Chukwumaeze exemplifies what it means to be a focused and proactive leader. By thinking deeply, listening intently, and acting decisively, he has set a new standard for academic leadership. As Imo State University continues to flourish under his guidance, one thing is clear: Prof Chukwumaeze is a leader for today and for the future.
