“We are well aware of all the intrigues playing out at the moment”.

“We also have it on good authority, that 15 persons applied for the position of the Vice Chancellor and 3 persons have been recommended to the State Government”.

“We however wish to advise that, for fairness on Lagosians, the consideration of the selection of an Indigene as the next VC should be given utmost priority.”

“We are however, really not too keen on the concerned individuals, all we call for is that the most qualified Lagos State Indigene should be nominated as the next VC of LASU”.
