The Lagos State University Students Union (LASUSU)
has called on the management of the institution to
immediately revert the acceptance fee payable
by newly admitted students from 20,000 to 10,000. According to Mr Adeyemi Onikoro, LASUSU
Chairman, if this is not done, may lead to a crisis. In his words, “Such a policy was initiated sometime
ago at the Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile-
ife, but it caused crisis which led to the closure of
the university for six months. “We do not want such to happen in LASU, so that
the academic calendar will not be distorted; that is
why we are calling on the new governing council
and the acting Vice-chancellor to do the needful. “Any attempt to sustain the increment will be
vehemently opposed by the students.”
