The Chancellor of Lagos State University, Oba Olufolarin Ogunsanwo, has outlined the university’s intention to pursue partnerships with Ivy League and other leading international institutions as part of efforts to enhance learning, research and global opportunities for its students.

Ogunsanwo spoke with The PUNCH on the sidelines of the Commonwealth Institute Universities Leaders Conference recently held in Lagos.

Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, who is the visitor to LASU, had, in February, appointed Oba Ogunsanwo as the sixth chancellor of the university.

He succeeded Gbolahan Elias, who served as the university’s fifth chancellor.

Speaking on his plans as chancellor, Ogunsanwo said fostering relationships with top universities abroad would be among his priorities, alongside promoting technology-driven learning and balanced development across LASU’s campuses.
