Lagos State University (LASU) says it has resolved a controversy involving missing or delayed results for some final-year students in the Department of English and assures eligible students they will graduate with their peers. The dispute followed claims that certain lecturers did not upload some 300-level results, raising fears that affected students could be forced to spend an extra year.
Across the outlets, LASU’s response is consistent: the university says its management investigates the allegation, then clarifies that the department uploads all outstanding results as of Sunday, 23 August 2026. LASU also states that no qualified student who has met graduation requirements will be required to delay graduation, even if a student’s result is still outstanding after the upload.
The differing emphasis is mainly in phrasing. Some reports describe the issue as a “results row” or “results crisis,” while others stress that the university “rules out” an extra year. All sources report that LASU communicates its assurance through an official statement on its social media and that students whose graduation requirements are not yet complete are advised to complete the remaining requirements.
