EXCLUSIVE: Fresh crisis looms as LASU shortlists candidates without PhD for VC position
Two of the candidates shortlisted do not have a PhD despite NUC s position that a fellowship of any professional bodies or organisation cannot be substituted for a PhD.
It appears the management of the
Lagos State University (LASU) has failed to learn from the controversy that led to the recent cancellation of the appointment of a new vice-chancellor for the institution.

Background
It is public knowledge that the tenure of the incumbent VC of LASU, Prof. Lanre Fagbohun will come to an end on 11th January, 2021. As is the usual tradition, a joint Selection Committee of the Senate and Council has been set up by the university to interview candidates for the position of new VC and submit the names of the three best candidates for the job for onward transmission to the Visitor (the Lagos State Governor) for final selection of one successful candidate for the job. The advertisement for the post required a successful applicant to be a Professor of at least 10 years standing, with good track-record of academic excellence of local and international repute including supervision and mentoring of postgraduate students, demonstration of continuous capacity for academic leadership, track record of experience in university administration at high levels, and evidence of unassailable grounding in the finest academic traditions.

The letter, dated January 1, 2021, and signed by both the secretary and his assistant, Tony Dansu and Adeolu Oyekan, respectively, also passed a vote of no confidence on the chairman of the university’s governing council, Adebayo Ninalowo.
