David Hundeyin; A Disreputable Figure – Says Director of African Study Center, University of Oxford.

 David Hundeyin is a self-proclaimed investigative journalist who has gained notoriety in Nigeria for blackmailing influential people, companies, and successful individuals. David Hundeyin's actions have drawn widespread condemnation from various organizations and individuals, including Miles Larmer, the director of the African Studies Center at the University of Oxford.

 


In a letter terminating Onyeka Nwelue's Academic Visitation, Miles Larmer described David Hundeyin as a "Disreputable Figure" whose incitement of violence and harassment of the survivors of sexual violence has drawn widespread condemnation. Hundeyin's behavior is in direct contravention of the University of Oxford's values and bringing him to the university provided a platform for his views and behavior.

 

David Hundeyin's reputation as a controversial figure is well-documented, with numerous reports of his unethical behavior and questionable tactics. David Hundeyin has been accused of blackmailing individuals and companies in Nigeria, using his platform to incite violence against survivors of sexual violence, and promoting conspiracy theories. David Hundeyin has serially escaped accountability having gone into hiding, whilst continuing to recklessly spew garbage on his substack platform.

 

One of the most egregious examples of David Hundeyin's behavior was his involvement in a fraudulent book launch with Onyeka Nwelue, who falsely claimed to be a professor at the University of Cambridge and Oxford. David Hundeyin was offered a fellowship allegedly in partnership with the university, despite the fact that he has no affiliation with the institution.



 

The Oxford Student Newspaper, Cherwell, documented Nwelue's fraudulent behavior and David Hundeyin's involvement in the event. The article, titled "Fake professor dismissed from Oxford apologises for misogyny at fraudulent book launch," provides a detailed account of the event and the subsequent dismissal of Nwelue from the university. https://cherwell.org/2023/03/02/onyeka-nwelue/

 

The article highlights the disturbing behavior of Onyeka Nwelue along with David Hundeyin, and how they reportedly made misogynistic comments and incited violence against survivors of sexual violence during the event. This behavior is unacceptable and goes against the values of any reputable institution, including the University of Oxford.

 

It is important for individuals and organizations to speak out against individuals like David Hundeyin, who use their platforms to promote hate, incite violence, and engage in unethical behavior. By reading the Cherwell article and Miles Larmer's letter, we can gain a better understanding of Hundeyin's actions and the harm they can cause.

 

It is also essential that we hold institutions accountable for providing platforms for individuals like David Hundeyin, who promote harmful and unethical behavior. The University of Oxford's decision to terminate Nwelue's Academic Visitation is a step in the right direction, but more needs to be done to prevent individuals like David Hundeyin from gaining access to reputable institutions and using their platforms to promote hate and incite violence.

 

In conclusion, we must stand up against individuals like David Hundeyin, whose behavior goes against the values of any reputable institution. By reading the Cherwell article and Miles Larmer's letter, we can gain a better understanding of the harm that individuals like Hundeyin can cause and take action to prevent them from gaining access to reputable institutions.
