By Oyo State governor, Seyi Makinde has directed the Vice-Chancellor of Ladoke Akintola University of Technology Ogbomoso (LAUTECH), Prof Michael Ologunde, to step aside from his position.
This was contained in a letter dated April 16, 2021, by the Commissioner for Education, Science, and Technology, Olasunkanmi Olaleye.
