ASIWAJU Muhammed Olagbaye, the chairman of the association, announced this while speaking at the Distinguished Awards and Fund Raising ceremony organized for the project at Sheraton Hotels and Tower, Ikeja, Lagos.

“As a result of the unity of purpose and unanimous decision on this project, a 300-seater Lecture Theatre estimated at N100 million was agreed to be embarked upon as our contribution not only in support of Lagos State government physical infrastructural support to LASU, but in appreciation of the impressive turn- around and unparalleled socio-economic and academic progress recorded during the tenure of Prof. Fagbohun (SAN), Prince of Akesan Kingdom and the first Awori indigene to be appointed as the Vice-Chancellor of the institution,” Olagbaye said.

To kick-off, Sir Adebutu Kessington donated a sum of N10million toward the project.
