The Lagos State University, LASU, on Thursday announced the postponement of its 24th convocation indefinitely.
The school authority gave the fear of the spread of coronavirus as the reason for the postponement.
In a statement issued by the co-ordinator of the university’s Centre for Information, Press and Public Relations, Mr. Ademola Adekoya, the management regretted any inconvenience that might have been caused by the decision.
His words: “The Lagos State University Management hereby announces the postponement of the 24th Convocation Ceremonies of the University indefinitely. The Convocation Ceremonies were scheduled for Friday 20th to Friday 27th March 2020.
“The postponement is as a result of the prevailing health threats occasioned by Coronavirus pandemic and the resolution of the Federal and State Governments to discourage the gathering of people in public places at this point.
“The Management regrets every inconvenience this postponement might cause all our graduating students, awardees, family, friends and other stakeholders of the University.”
