Alele-Williams, who was also the first woman to receive a doctorate in Nigeria, died on Friday at an undisclosed hospital in Lagos. She was 89 years old.

The late Professor of Mathematics gained prominence after she was appointed the vice-chancellor of the prestigious University of Benin in 1985.

This online platform recalls that her tenure witnessed a drastic reduction in cultism, a menace in UNIBEN at the time.

Confirming the death of the respected university administrator and mathematician, a former Commissioner for Higher Education, Delta State, and ex-Head of Department of English, the University of Lagos, Prof. Hope Eghagha, said Alele-Williams died on Friday.

Asked about the circumstances surrounding her death, Eghagha said, “Anything can happen at 89.”

Before her appointment as vice-chancellor, she made history as the first Nigerian woman to obtain a doctorate degree in Mathematics education in 1963, a rare feat in the 60s.
