Pandemonium In LASU As Students Stone VC Over Undue Closure Of Registration Portal

Lagos State University students went on the rampage Thursday, disrupting the university's  second semester examination and destroying properties in the process.

The protest which started Wednesday over the closure of the university's registration portal, led to stoning of the University Vice Chancellor Prof. John Obafunwa, as he tried to evade the riotous students who had blocked the main gate and made bonfires on the Lagos-Badagry expressway.

It was reported that students threw sticks and stones at the Vice Chancellor's convoy as he made to escape through an alternative route beside Conoil Filling station.

Trouble started in the university when the VC decided not to open the registration portal for over 2,000 students who are yet to register their second semester courses as exams was to begin Thursday, even though the banks are still collecting school fees from students, whose hope of registering gets slimmer by the day.

According to the students, only 708 were able to register before the portal was shut again leaving, 1292 students to their fate.

And not so bad to see some folks still like Jesus Christ *az in, the same yesterday, today and forever.. Chai!! God forgive me ooo.. I dint say that. But, to be sincere the strike has not been so fair to some guyz... looking as if they have been in the desert for ages. You need to see them * My own dey my body..lol.

Anyway, good or bad, its so good to see you guys once again and I officially welcome you back to UNILAG with a prayer that the best will surely be the order of our stay.

We are still expecting you.. Yes! I mean You or don't you wanna come and resume again?
