Represented by the Deputy Vice Chancellor, Academic, Prof. Olufunso Omobitan, Olatunji-Bello said his administration was on course in the implementation of its agenda to propel the university to higher height.

Lagos State University is a student-centred university and a place to groom generational leaders. We take pride in training students for life. The kind of close attention we pay to full time students is what we are going to pay to you. You are all our students that we have responsibilities to.

As we have some responsibilities to discharge to you, you too have responsibilities to the institution and the society at large. That is why you have to conduct yourselves in acceptable manner. There is no room for deviant behaviour. As part time students, you are not allowed to form any student association, ” she said.

The VC counselled the students to take their studies serious and be of good conduct.
