Technology is a tertiary institution located in Ogbomoso, Oyo
State
The National Universities Commission has pledged its
commitment to ensuring the full and faithful implementation of the
terms of the agreement reached by the Governors of Oyo and Osun
states over the Ladoke Akintola University of Science and
Technology (LAUTECH).
Addressing a news conference in Abuja the Executive Secretary of
the NUC, Professor Abubakar Rasheed applauded the state governments
for giving legal effect to the transfer of LAUTECH to Oyo state
government and the College of Health Sciences, Osogbo to the
Government of Osun state.
“Over the years, the joint ownership arrangement has been
characterised by government or management challenges, affecting the
appointments of vice-chancellors and other principal officers,”
Professor Rasheed said. “And occasionally problems started to show,
especially problems to do with the irregular payment of staff
salaries.

“In September 2010, when it became obvious that the joint
ownership of the institution was an issue, actually, a problem. And
in an attempt to resolve these challenges and restore normalcy
enable the university focus on achievement of its mission, the NUC
then constituted a transition committee to oversee the affairs of
the institution for three months.”
Professor Rasheed added that with the dissolution of the joint
partnership agreement, LAUTECH will regain its pride of place as a
front-line university in the country.
