Following the outcry that greeted the allegation of certificate racketeering against some academic and non-academic staff of the Lagos State University, LASU, the management of the institution has removed Prof. Tajudeen Olumoko as the Dean of Students Affairs and replaced him with a senior lecturer in the Department of Political Science, Dr Abiodun Fatai-Abatan.
The sting operation that was carried out to nail those involved in the act was carried out in 2020 following the report by the then Vice Chancellor, Prof. Olanrewaju Fagbohun, SAN, that some persons were selling degree certificates of the university for millions of naira. However, following the report, the management of LASU on Tuesday issued a statement denying any cover-up on the matter.
“We hereby establish that the Management of Lagos State University had promptly brought the original allegations to the attention of general law enforcement authorities including the office of the Lagos State Directorate of Public Prosecutions. These authorities have not yet concluded their investigations.
