The Lagos State University (LASU) Senate has suspended all socio-academic activities, including the 2024/2025 Second Semester Examinations, citing unresolved administrative matters between staff unions and the state government.
The decision was reached during a virtual Senate meeting held on Saturday, August 2, 2025, where members reviewed developments following the industrial action declared on Thursday, July 31, by the Joint Action Committee (JAC) of Staff Unions. The JAC comprises the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Non-Academic Staff Union (NASU), Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU), and the National Association of Academic Technologists (NAAT).
Briefing members of the Senate, the Vice-Chancellor and Chairman of Senate explained that the University Management had been engaging with relevant authorities to find a peaceful resolution, and noted that a high-level meeting chaired by the Lagos State Head of Service, Mr. Olabode Agoro, was held on Friday, August 1, involving representatives of the unions, university management, and state ministries. The parties agreed to reconvene on Thursday, August 7, for further consultations.
Following deliberations, the Senate resolved to postpone the semester examinations, originally scheduled to start on Monday, August 4, and suspend all academic and non-academic activities until further notice.
The Senate also directed all students residing in hostels across the Ojo, LASUCOM, Epe, and Badagry campuses to vacate the facilities by 6:00 a.m. on Monday, August 4.
Students and other members of the university community have been advised to remain calm and law-abiding while consultations continue.
