[Shola Sholaz]

Crisis again rocked the Lagos State University (LASU), on Monday, as members of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU) and the Non-Academic Staff Union (NASU) locked the Vice Chancellor out of office.
.
It was revealed that the aggrieved staff were protesting against the leadership of the vice chancellor, Profrddor John Obafunwa.
.
The protesters allegedly chased the VC out of office and threw objects like stones and sachet water at him during the protest.
.
It will be recalled that the various staff unions in LASU are at logger-head with the VC for sometime now over various issues.
.
The protest disrupted the planning of the 20th convocation ceremony of the university which is scheduled to take place tomorrow.
.
Efforts to get the VC to comment on the issue proved abortive as the policemen and campus security hurriedly escorted him out of the area.
