The pro-chancellor of the University of Lagos (UNILAG), Wale Babalakin, has resigned his position following alleged disagreement with the Federal Government on the visitation panel sent to the university.
Babalakin said there were too many vested interests in the UNILAG matter who were not approaching the issues objectively.
But he said it has come to a stage he must stand by his principles since the Federal Government believed the actions he took may not be right.
He said the visitation panel was raised to exonerate the vice-chancellor and implicate the pro-chancellor.
He said although he appeared in protest before the panel, he made it clear that the panel could not determine the issues before it.
He said he would also not be available again to serve as the chairman of the Federal Government Negotiation Team on the Agreement reached with university unions in 2009.
He has been the chairman of the negotiating team since January 6, 2017. He said he had served the university system in Nigeria with his heart and intellect.
