SANWO-OLU COMMENDED AS NUC FULLY ACCREDITS 31 LASU COURSES


...Vice-Chancellor Says 96 % Accreditation Success Is Unprecedented
 

Governor Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu has been commended for bringing sustainable reforms to the State’s education sector as exemplified by the excellent performance of the Lagos State University (LASU) in the recently released National Universities Commission (NUC) Comprehensive Accreditation Exercise for the year 2021.

The Special Adviser to the Governor on Education, Tokunbo Wahab, gave the commendation while reacting to the NUC accreditation exercise for the Y2021 where LASU achieved 96 percent accreditation success, noting that the reforms embarked upon by Mr. Governor are fast yielding positive results.

Wahab explained that the Sanwo-Olu administration's T.H.E.M.E.S development agenda is the fastest and most effective strategy for achieving transformational governance in the current democratic experience.

He emphasised that the State government's huge investment in education, the third pillar of the T.H.E.M.E.S agenda, has repositioned its education sector in becoming a model for the country.

“Out of the 37 courses of the Lagos State University (LASU) presented by the University Authority for accreditation before NUC during the October/November 2021 NUC Academic Programmes Accreditation Exercise for Nigerian Universities, 31 of those courses got NUC’s full accreditation status”, he stated.

Also speaking, the Vice-Chancellor of the University, Professor Ibiyemi Olatunji-Bello, said such an excellent feat is unprecedented in the University's 40 years of existence, adding that the letter of notification of results from NUC stated that 31 out of the 37 courses presented before the Commission by LASU received an excellent grade of 96.0%, while four courses are still under interim accreditation status. 

In her words: “LASU’s courses that had NUC full accreditation according to the NUC notification letter are Accounting, Banking and Finance, Business Administration, Local Government and Development Studies”.

“Others include Arabic Studies, Christian Religious Studies, English Language, Islamic Studies, Yoruba Language, Music, Nursing Science, Psychology and Pharmacology as well as all the 14 courses in the Faculty of Education, Law, Mathematics and Physics”, she added.

Prof. Olatunji-Bello stated that the four courses still under interim accreditation status are Aeronautics and Astronautics Engineering, Common and Islamic Law, Theatre Arts and Philosophy.

The Vice-Chancellor noted that the University had witnessed progressive development since the inception of the Sanwo-Olu administration, pointing out that LASU programmes run smoothly without any interruption because the Governor adequately funds the growth of education while also prioritising the welfare of staff and students in policy formulation. 

In the same vein, the Permanent Secretary, Office of the Special Adviser on Education, Mr. Adeniran Kasali, urged the management of LASU to reciprocate the State Government's continued funding of the University by working harder and ensuring that the institution maintains its status as the best State University in the country and one of the first 500 in the world.  

Also speaking, the President-Elect of LASU Students Union Government, Adeoye Moses, a 300-Level Student in the Theatre Arts Department, attributed the success of the accreditation to the State Government's continued funding of tertiary education and the appointment of a hardworking educationist as the 9th Vice-Chancellor of the University, in the person of Mrs. Ibiyemi Olatunji-Bello.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the uni...
