Adamu, while receiving the report said: “The visitor of the university, after due consideration of the report, will take a decision on the matter as appropriate in order to restore peace and conducive learning atmosphere in the university of Lagos and the university system as a whole.”
The crisis rocking the institution started when Ogundipe was sacked as Vice-Chancellor on August 12 over allegations of infractions and gross misconduct by the school’s Governing Council, headed by Dr Wale Babalakin.
The federal government had however suspended both Babalakin and Prof. Ogundipe pending the outcome of the investigations by the panel.
