LASU Clarifies Viral Post About Degree Certificate Found at ‘Suya’ Spot
Lagos State University (LASU) has responded to a viral social media post about a degree certificate allegedly found at a ‘suya’ spot, clarifying that the incident is an old event. The university stated that the certificate was recovered on Wednesday, November 21, 2018, and was invalid due to a misspelling of the graduate’s surname as ABISOYE instead of ABIOYE.
In a statement via its X handle (formerly known as Twitter) @LASUOfficial on Monday, June 3, LASU said, “This is old news; please disregard it. The development happened back in 2018 and was properly addressed by the University.” The post referred to an old statement which partially reads: “The ‘certificate’ in question actually exists but was invalidated on 25th February 2013 because the graduate’s surname was wrongly written on the ‘certificate’ as ABISOYE instead of ABIOYE.”
