Inyama’s death comes just months after the tragic loss of Wigwe University’s founder, Herbert Wigwe, who died in a helicopter crash in California, USA, along with his wife and son.
According to a family source, Inyama died on Saturday due to complications from fibroid surgery and a wrong blood transfusion.
The source revealed that she was initially admitted to a hospital in Abuja for fibroid treatment but suffered a fatal reaction after receiving the wrong blood type.
“She died of loss of blood due to fibroid complications under mysterious circumstances. We were told that wrong blood transfusion led to her death.
“When her condition worsened due to complications, she was referred to another hospital, where she passed on,” the source said.
Before joining Wigwe University, Inyama was chief personnel officer and head of strategic communications/special duties in the office of the executive secretary of the National Universities Commission (NUC).
Her career in the NUC spans almost two decades. She also honed her skills in university regulation and administration in other directorates of the commission, including the directorates of quality assurance and academic planning.
In her time at the NUC, she served in several projects, varied policy and strategic committees, working groups and communities of practice within the Nigerian university system.
A bilingual administrator, Inyama holds a first-class honours degree in French and a master’s degree in international development from the University of Birmingham, specialising in governance, conflict, and social reconstruction.
