Lagos State University, LASU, Nigeria, has shown why it is regarded as a leading varsity in the country and across Africa with the launch of a mobile application to enhance staff efficiency and productivity.

She added that the mobile application will serve as a centre for information, policy, LASU laws, and guidelines for both the academic and non-academic staff of Lagos State University.
Her words: “The APP serves as a virtual gateway to our vibrant academic community, offering a window into the heart and soul of our institution. The APP will include information and resources that embody our policies and operational principles as approved by law and as entrenched in our commitment to excellence in education, research, and community engagement.”
The VC, who is a Professor of Physiology, further acknowledged and appreciated the efforts of the Director of Information, Communication Technology, ICT, LASU, Prof. Toyin Enikuomehin and his team for the continuous drive to ensure that LASU leads in flexible deployment of technology as a way of making work load less tiresome.
Speaking of how the app could be downloaded, the VC said that could be gotten through the university’s website, www.lasu.edu.ng, and is available for Android users only.
