University of Lagos Governing Council has confirmed Prof. Folasade Ogunsola as the acting Vice-Chancellor of the institution.
The Governing Council, led by its interim Chairman, Dr John Momoh at a virtual meeting on Tuesday, approved her nomination.
The inauguration of the visitor’s panel will hold in Abuja on Wednesday.
There was jubilation at UNILAG on Monday when she emerged the acting VC at the emergency Senate meeting.
Last week, Federal Government had asked UNILAG Senate to reconvene and nominate an acting VC following the crisis between the varsity’s Pro-Chancellor and Chairman of Council, Wale Babalakin, and Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Oluwatoyin Ogundipe.
The government also suspended Babalakin and Ogundipe from official duties, pending the outcome of the Special Visitation Panel set up by President Muhammadu Buhari.
With her emergence, Ogunsola broke UNILAG’s 58-year record by becoming the first female to be appointed as an acting VC of the institution since it was founded in 1962.
