The Lagos State University (LASU)
says it has phased out external programmes at Ojuelegba and Anthony Village
Campuses and is no longer in business with its former partners on the premises.
The University spokesman, Adekoya
Martins, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Tuesday in Lagos that the off
campus buildings at Ojuelegba and Anthony Village in Lagos did not belong to
the university.
NAN reports that LASU had in 2017
phased out its external campus programme and replaced it with Open and Distance
Learning and Research Institute (ODLRI) which was approved by the National
University Commission (NUC) last month.
Martins said LASU had since
relocated its School of Communication from Ojuelegba to its Ojo main campus
after vacating the building.
He explained that the Ojuelegba
building, which formerly housed its School of Communication, was donated to
LASU by Late Alhaji Adebola Adegunwa but the change of ownership could not be
effected.
“For now, LASU does not have
business with those buildings which belong to the former partners of the
university.
“The owners are, however, free to
use their buildings for whatever they wish to use it for,’’ he said.
Martins further said that LASU
would soon erase its name and identity from the said buildings to dissociate
the university from them.
