LASU Closed down Indefinitely
Category: Campus News
The Lagos State University (LASU), Ojo has been closed down indefinitely
following the inability of the government to meet the demands of its
staff union including the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU),
Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU) and National
Academic Staff Union (NASU).
Some of the demands of the staff unions include: the appointment of an acting vice-chancellor to preside over the convocation that would have been held last week and right the wrong allegedly done by the Vice-Chancellor, Prof. John Obafunwa’s including the victimisation of its members, withdrawal of certificates of lecturers and abuse of due process by the university’s management.
The closure, according to reports, might not be unconnected with the crises that had been rocking the 30-year-old institution with the unions being at loggerheads with the VC over several issues.
It had also passed a vote-of-no-confidence on him several months ago.
Last week, staff unions, including the SSANU and NASU, had staged a mass protest where Obafunwa was successfully booted out.
During the protest at the institution’s campus in Ojo, Obafunwa, who gained entrance with the aid of security officials, was chased out with sachet of water thrown at him.
