They said there is no iota of truth in the said publication aimed at tarnishing the good image and reputation of the seasoned administrator.
The said write up born out of a petition authored by some citizens of the state had alleged that Professor Onyeneje, who was a former Rector of the Institute of science and Technology (IMT) Enugu, was sacked and indicted by a judicial panel of inquiry set up by the Enugu state government.
