The announcement was made by Vice-Chancellor Prof. Ibiyemi Ibilola Olatunji-Bello in an official statement shared by the Deputy Registrar and Coordinator of the CIPR, Thomas-Onashile Oluwayemisi.

Government Directive on Work Resumption

This decision aligns with a directive from the Lagos State Government, outlined in a circular referenced CIR/HOS/’25/VOL.1/007, dated February 11, 2025, and signed by the Head of Service, Mr. Bode Agoro. The circular reads:

“Furtherance to the implementation of the New Minimum Wage in the State Public Service and other commendable measures put in place by this administration to improve the welfare and well-being of public servants in Lagos State, it is hereby notified for general information that Mr. Governor, Mr. Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu, has approved the cancellation of the work-from-home initiative in the Lagos State Public Service.”

Implementation Date

The work-from-home arrangement, which has been in effect since February 2024, will officially end on March 31, 2025. From this date onward, all staff members (both Teaching and Non-Teaching) are expected to fully resume work at the university.

Work Schedule Reminder

To ensure compliance, LASU staff members must adhere to the official working hours:

• Monday to Friday: 8:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.

All employees are encouraged to rededicate themselves to their responsibilities and enhance their service delivery in alignment with the university’s operational standards.
