LASU Students Urge Council to Reject Bid to Reinstate Dismissed Lecturer

Concerned students of Lagos State University have urged the Governing Council to resist political pressure to reinstate Professor Olatunji Abanikannda after his 2025 dismissal for gross misconduct. They say they were subjected to inhumane treatment, forced to work from dawn till late and stand in heavy rain without breaks, food, or water during farm practicals. The students warn that lobbyists and a potential future vice chancellor candidate are campaigning for his return. They vow to resist any attempt to reverse the earlier decision and protect their dignity.

Political pressure arguments seem to be given more weight than students' claims of inhumane treatment and forced labor at dawn.

I understand concerns, but maybe the council wants a balanced review of all evidence, not just political or student claims.

Sure the students suffered forced dawn-to-dusk labor, but serious misconduct charges shouldn't be overshadowed by protest politics.

They could gather testimonials and official records of forced work hours, then present them directly to the Governing Council.
