Students Trooping To Lagos Varsities Because We Didn’t Join ASUU Strike
The three Lagos State Universities including Lagos State University (LASU), Lagos State University of Science and Technology (LASUST), and the Lagos State University of Education (LASUED) are oversubscribed in the 2022 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) application. This is as a result of the continuous academic activities in the schools amid the prolonged industrial action by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU). Special Adviser to Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Education, Mr. Tokunbo Wahab, state clearly that the oversubscription was a result of the failure of the State Universities to join the ASUU strike.
“LASU and the two new universities are not on strike but we are worried that at the national level, students have been at home for months; and because of the absence of strike in the state universities, we are currently over subscribed,” he stated.
