The Senate of the University, at its meeting held on Monday, 11th August 2025, approved the resumption of academic and social activities in the university with effect from Wednesday, 13th August 2025.
In a press statement signed on Monday August 11, 2025 by the Deputy Registrar/Coordinator, Centre for Information and Public Relations, Lagos State University, Mrs. Thomas-Onashile Oluwayemisi, this followed the decision of the Joint Action Committee (JAC) to call off its industrial action on Tuesday, 12th August 2025, and resume work on Wednesday, 13th August 2025, after a productive meeting with the Deputy Governor, Dr Obafemi Hamzat, on Thursday, 7th August 2025.
The statement said that after due consideration of the updates received from the Vice-Chancellor on the said meeting, Senate resolved that all academic and social activities should resume across the University on Wednesday, 13th August 2025. While students should move into their hostels on all university campuses in Ojo, Ikeja and Epe from Wednesday, 13th August 2025, as the 2024/2025 second semester examinations, previously suspended, should commence on Monday, 18th August 2025.
“Students are advised to return promptly and prepare adequately for the examinations,” the statement said.
It would be recalled that the Senate, at its virtual meeting held on Saturday, 2nd August 2025, suspended all academic and social activities following the declaration of industrial action by the Joint Action Committee of Staff Unions on Thursday, 31st July 2025.
