Students of the School of Agriculture, Lagos State University (LASU), have raised fresh concerns over the prolonged failure of the institution to upload and release their academic results.
They lamented that this situation had disrupted their studies and denied them critical academic and career opportunities.
Several affected students told SaharaReporters that the delay has made it impossible for them to properly plan their academic progression, especially as a new academic session has commenced and another round of examinations is about to begin.
According to the students, results from the previous academic session have not been uploaded on the university portal, affecting virtually all departments within the School of Agriculture.
“School of Agriculture, Lagos State University (LASU) has refused to upload the results of their students,” one of the students said.
“They are even about to commence another exams again. Last session results and this is a new session.”
The students said the situation has persisted since the controversy surrounding the former Dean of the Faculty of Agriculture, Professor O.T.F. Abanikanda, who was dismissed in May 2025 following allegations of degrading and inhumane treatment of students at the university’s school farm.
“You are aware of the issues the school had with Abanikannda sir, since then no results ooo,” a student said. “
They said he scattered the portal and some courses before he left or so, and the school hasn’t been doing anything about it.”
They added that the problem cuts across all levels in the faculty. “In fact almost all the courses in School of Agriculture. It affected all levels. So 200–500 levels. And convocation is fast approaching,” another student said.
Students of the Department of Agricultural Extension appear to be among the worst affected. According to them, recent graduates in the department have yet to see even their first semester results.
“There is a particular department, Agricultural Extension,” a student told SaharaReporters. “The recent graduates, they haven’t even seen their first semester results not to even talk about second semester results. They signed out August last year. The first semester exams was actually in February last year. And this is nearly a year now. They have not released the results, while students from other faculties have been seeing their results.”
They also accused the faculty management of offering repeated excuses without solutions.
“Second semester exams in August last year. The dean keeps telling stories,” one of the students said.
As earlier reported by SaharaReporters, LASU management removed Prof. Abanikanda as Dean of the Faculty of Agriculture after sustained pressure from students and advocacy groups, including the Take-It-Back (TIB) Movement, over allegations of abuse, intimidation, and harsh treatment of students.
Following his removal, Dr. Oladele Ojuromi was appointed as the new Dean of the Faculty. A video obtained by SaharaReporters at the time showed students celebrating the development.
One of the students had said, “After TIB’s intervention in the ongoing LASU crisis, the management relieved Prof. O.T.F. Abanikanda of his duty and appointed Dr. Oladele Ojuromi as the new Dean of the Faculty of Agriculture.”
Another student added, “You can see the joy on the students’ faces! Abanikanda has been a tyrant for five years and a burden on the students.”
Despite the change in leadership, students say the core academic issues, particularly the backlog of results, remain unresolved, raising fears that the administrative crisis in the faculty may continue to haunt them long after Abanikanda’s exit.
They are now calling on the LASU management to urgently intervene and ensure that all outstanding results are uploaded without further delay, warning that continued silence could further damage their academic futures.
