The Lagos State University has replied critics of it's new bread business on it's twitter page. The University had announced a new Bread Bakery as shown in this thread https://www.nairaland.com/7634053/lasu-bread-lagos-state-university

In response to a critic that tweeted:

Isn't it worrisome that a UNIVERSITY is being applauded for opening a bakery when their counterparts outside the country are focused on researches and grants to increase IGR?

The University responded that:

Isn't it worrisome that when news of research grants and awards (and there are tons of them) from the university are posted on this same platform, they don't attract this level of engagements? 🤔

A very weak response(clap back) in defense of bread baking by an institution of higher learning

McLizbae:
You still don't understand.

I understand they want to make money but it’s not an (big) achievement worthy of commendation by an institution of higher learning

It is within their rights to insist that LASU bread will be the only bread on Campus

Go and buy outside the school if you want any other brand

Na Bread project this people wan dey defend now?

I'll suggest Sanwo Olu close down the school and turn it to State Bakery since Bread is their top priority. Rubbish!

That LASU reply no make sense at all...

Wu eat bread reach student before anything to make money for the school make dem Add Ewa Agonyin too

Bread is key. I just hope it's not a branch of obedient bread.

Must they react to everything ?
Tho it's good to hear that research & projects have always been posted before bread.

Let them advertise their bread in peace.
Because I still wonder who is expecting development in this country with the kind of government we are running here.

Only Nigeria we go see this kind thing... It should HV been on a low key.

This has deeper meaning that the institution management is only out to create revenue for the institutions, away from its primary assignment of higher education.

All campuses make money outside their primary assignment of higher education.

LASUs counterparts outside the country have exclusive campus cafes that sell snacks and coffee and cooked food daily.

They also have their shops that sell University merchandise to students such as monogrammed mugs, t-shirts, sweatshirts, pens and books.

With all that business, they still charge their students at least $10,000 for the cheapest course.

You can imagine the nonsense
Using a school handle to debate about Bread making

Shameless beings!

LASU has pioneered Manufacturing/production by Universities. But others are into pure/table water production o, such as Uniuyo, MOUAU, etc.

Nigeria, na joke

If we talk now, Owners of Lagos will trace our generation to Mogadishu and Kampala respectively.

You are just being clever by half. Other campuses in Nigeria do it. I know for a fact the only bread and pure water sold in BIU is by their university. And it's not the first.

Nigeria is a poor country with poor people. If you don't want school fees above N150k then allow universities make money in other ways. Education is not cheap.

Clever by full moon, did I argue about your Bread production?

Why are you jittery over my comment.

Department of food science should also introduce Production of Ewa goyin to collaborate with the Bread.
Bread without Ewa is breadless.

Did you see or hear BIU make noise about producing Bread?

Of course, Nigeria's level of development is still rudimentary. Instead of focusing on space and nanotechnology research, universities should concentrate on how to improve the country's leadership, food, and hygiene quality.

In a way they are right, but their primitive minds still dread competition.

I will endorse that combo my brother....

It will add "Nutritional" value to some numb skulls in the school.

Bread without Ewa goyin or Blue Band is breadless.

After all, Man Shall not Live by Bread alone.

Of course they did.

See their VC, A professor being proud of producing Bread in an institution of higher learning. This is gross!

It doesn't matter dt she took a picture. You can't knock her just for that. LASU is still the best state University in Nigeria.

But, on a serious note, was the VC and LASU expecting Nigerians to applaud them for producing Bread?

She was expecting a National Merit Award for the milestone achievement.
