In full compliance with the agreement of sole ownership of the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH), Ogbomoso, Oyo State government has paid a total of ₦5 billion to the Osun State government.

Commissioner for Information in the state, Prince Dotun Oyelade, disclosed on Monday, that the total takeover amount was ₦8 billion and that with this payment, Oyo State government had been paying ₦1 billion per year with the full payment expected to be settled before the end of Governor Seyi Makinde-led administration in 2027.

According to Oyelade, both states struck a deal on November 20, 2020 to cede sole ownership of the institution to Oyo State.

Oyelade recalled that the joint ownership of LAUTECH was acrimonious between both states from 2007 to 2019, but when Governor Makinde took over, agreement was surprisingly reached with his Osun counterpart to make Oyo State the sole owner of the institution.

“Ever since, the Institution has grown in leaps and bounds, reclaiming its position as the Best State University in Nigeria.
