LASU students raise alarm over insecurity in school vicinity

The Lagos State University Students’ Union (LASUSU) president, Tayo Sekoni has spoken out on a looming crisis within the school vicinity and why the students may start wielding weapons.
While lamenting the state of insecurity in Lagos state, Sekoni stated that some of his colleagues were held hostage for several days without proactive measures put in place to curb a recurrence.
In a statement made available to Naij.com, the students’ leader noted,“Are we going to wait until we witness an abduction of Chibok magnitude before we act? This is a state that its Governor ‘claimed’ to have spent hundreds of millions of naira on security.
“Despite these huge figures, we still can’t guarantee concrete security for students across the state. This is totally unacceptable!
“More worrisome, is the continuous ethnic clash in Lagos that has continued unabated.”
While accusing the governor of not being totally in control of the state, the students also explained the security threats posed to the entire LASU community based on the present reality in Lagos.
“LASU is very close to Alaba-Rago which accommodates some violent elements. These unscrupulous elements have taken over much of LASU lands for planting of vegetables and illegal erection of shops.
“It is very much imperative at this juncture to recall that, over 10 years ago, when an ethnic crisis of this magnitude hit Lagos, LASU students suffered greatly,”the statement read further.
“And as good students of History, we won’t allow such to repeat itself. Never!!! In this regard, If the present crisis continues to rage and it extends to Alaba-Rago, then LASU students will be exposed to dangers that may force over 60,000 LASUITES to arm and defend themselves.
“We beseech Governor Ambode,as a matter of urgency, to sit tight,act fast and put in place proactive measures on these issues before LASU students are forced to defend themselves; in the face of any threat to their lives, and properties,”the statement added.
