The Lagos State University (LASU), Ojo, on Wednesday gave its external students a two-week ultimatum to pay their fees, saying it plans to wind up the programme by 2016.
The Vice-Chancellor of the institution, John Obafunwa, told a press briefing in Lagos that the two weeks ultimatum commenced from Oct. 8 to October 22nd.
Obafunwa said the decision was taken at a stakeholders’ forum after it was discovered that only 5, 366 students had registered for
the semester.
The VC said the university was compelling the students to pay because the National Universities Commission (NUC) had given it till 2016 to wind up the programme.
“The National Universities Commission (NUC) has been magnanimous enough to give us grace till 2016 and there is no justification for any student not to pay his or her fees,” he said.
