The management of Osun State University has constituted a committee to review the circumstances surrounding the death of a 400-level student, Osunlakin Grace, while announcing sweeping reforms to healthcare services across its campuses following a meeting with the National Association of Nigerian Students, Southwest Zone D.
The resolutions disclosed in a statement by NANS Southwest Coordinator, Adeyemo Josiah on Tuesday, were reached during a meeting between the university management led by the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Odunayo Adeboye, and the NANS Southwest leadership over the death of the Criminology and Security Studies student and other welfare concerns affecting students.
Speaking during the engagement, NANS Southwest Coordinator, Adeyemo Josiah, said, “The welfare, safety, and well-being of students across the Southwest remain the foremost priority of the NANS Southwest leadership.”
He added that while the association believed in constructive dialogue and partnership with university management, it would continue to speak up whenever students’ welfare was neglected.
Responding, Adebooye expressed sadness over Osunlakin’s death, describing the incident as painful to the university community.
