BREAKING NEWS! LASU PRESIDENT,SPEAKER ESCAPES ARREST BY GOVERNMENT

The ongoing crisis in Lagos State University(LASU) as a result of tuition fee increment took a new turn yesterday as the President of the student union,Comrade Akeem Durojaiye and the Speaker of the Student Parliamentary Council,Hon. Rasheed Azeez escaped being arrested by a whisker.
The duo had gone to the Assembly complex in Alausa,Ikeja at the invitation of the Chairman of the commitee set up by the Lagos State House of Assembly to look into the increment saga but on getting there met something else entirely. According to the LASUSU 01,he revealed that ''on getting to the meeting point,We were surprise that nobody was around. Infact calls put to some other commitee members showed us that they were not even aware of the meeting. This made us suspicious of an hanky panky.Later,the Chairman came in and immediately stepped back out with a promise to be back soon.Immediately he left,We also stepped out and to our chagrin,saw a full squad of RRS advancing towards our location.We immediately retreated and took another direction but We were only saved because the security operatives couldnt identify us''.
While corroborating this story,the SPC Speaker, Hon. Azeez disclosed that it was rather unfortunate. ''Before We could make it to Ikeja,we had to engage the services of three different commercial motocyclists(Okada). The first one had a flat tyre while the second had a brake failure.This incidences drew our conciousness and so when We called some other members of the commitee and they declined knowledge of the meeting,We knew something was up'' the Speaker said.
BlacKBox discovered that this incident has infuriated the student populace who before now has decided to sheathe their swords and await the outcome of the commitee meetings. The students had on tuesday .5th of November gone back to their respective halls to write their GNS exams which had earlier been disrupted on two different occasions in protest against the school fees increment.
Although,the government side is yet to make any statement on the incident, it is only hoped that the coming days shall witness a positive conclusion to the crisis.
