In order to ensure sanity returns to Lagos State University (LASU), the school management has dismissed 17 Academic and non-academic Staff and demoted two others over allegedly falsifying their Senior Secondary School Certificate (SSCE) results and manipulation of students’ results.

Other allegations leveled against the dismissed staff also include alleged inducement, default in Training Leave bond and abandonment of duty post.

The school management also demanded that the dismissed staff refund the sum of N53 million earlier disbursed to them to embark on training within the country and abroad to its coffer.

LASU, in a statement made available to newsmen on Friday by the Acting Head, Centre for Information Press And Public Relations (CIPPRO), Ademola Adekoya, said that the dismissal followed due processes.

According to the statement, Section 6(1) and (2) of the LASU Law 2004 (as amended), the Council of the institution is the governing authority of the University, and exercises general oversight over the Institution and its affairs.
