The former Vice Chancellor of of the Federal University of Technology, Akure ( FUTA), Professor Albert Ilemobade, who was kidnapped last week has been found dead in a store in his own home.
Ondo State Police Command confirmed the VC's death.

The former VC was reportedly abducted last Monday along with his gateman and was said to have been taken to an unknown destination, until his body was found on Sunday.
I  was gathered that the octogenarian's decomposing body was found after the arrest of two of his domestic staff by security agents in Ogun State, while they trying to sell the Red Toyota RAV4 Jeep stolen from the late Ilemobade's residence.
Eke, who confirmed that the two suspects have been apprehended by men of the Ogun State police Command, said that they would be transferred to Ondo State on Monday.
“After interrogation, the two suspects confessed that they killed Ilemobade and hid his corpse in a store which housed his generating set, before running away with his vehicle which they planned to sell.
“A signal was sent to us from Ogun State Command and this led to the discovery of the decomposing body of the former VC,” the commissioner said.
All attempts to speak with any member of the family of the deceased was not successful as some of them, including two of his children and his wife, were too grieved to speak with journalists.
