D way some Nigerians think is just ridiculous. MUST WE DO EVERYTHING LIKE THE WEST? So because there is University of Manchester, all our Universities too should follow suit. Rubbish!!! angry

No we must not... All universities and western ideas and values should be abolished with immediate effect.Corruption and mediocrity should be the order of the day.

Must we change Unilag to make the name known, if we want a̶̲̥̅̊ university named after abiola why can't we create a̶̲̥̅̊ new school Ãήϑ name it after him. Afterall,we still need more schools in Nigeria.

Was the school relocated? Why should it be a problem to call them Akokites? It seems you hear people say that phrase, but dont know the meaning of it. MAU just like UNILAG is located in Akoka, Yaba. Se o ti ye e bayi?

UNILAG ASUU Chairman blasts Jonathan for changing institutions name

---

The Chairman of the University of Lagos (UNILAG) branch of ASUU (Academic Staff Union of Universities), Dr Oghenekaro Ogbinaka, while addressing a gathering of protesting UNILAG students, assured them that the Union will fight against Jonathan’s decision to change the name of the tertiary institution to Moshood Abiola University.

“I want to tell you that ASUU is by you,

“the entire University of Lagos is by you,

“we woke up peacefully and saw a stupidd man announcing a stupidd decision” UNILAG-ASUU chairman, Dr Oghenekaro Ogbinaka said.

Dr. Ogenekaro stated that President Jonathan wanted to score a cheap political point with the decision to change UNILAG’s name.

Jonathan’s surprise decision to rename UNILAG as Moshood Abiola University angered majority of the students of University, who immediately began protesting the decision, insisting that “UNILAG must remain UNILAG”.

Jonathan said that renaming the University is in appreciation and honour of the contribution of late MKO Abiola.

Other principal officers of the tertiary institution who addressed disgruntled students appealed for calm, saying that they were not a part of the decision and that they were also against it.

Students protesting along the Yaba area of Lagos met the Oba of Lagos along the way. He said Jonathan should reverse the decision.

Meanwhile, the daughter of the late MKO abiola, Hafsat Abiola-Costello, described the presidents gesture as well deserved.

“It is honour well deserved. We should just remember that his commitment was to end poverty. That was what he was fighting for. It’s honour for him and those who fought with him.” Hafsat told Nigeria Politics Online.

---

Another way GEJ could honor Abiola by practicing true democracy and making it that of the people. I don't think Abiola would want a university named after him, not from such a rogue administration. Not even his daughter can see that.

Re: UNILAG Renamed 'Moshood Abiola University' by tpia5: 6:15pm On May 29, 2012
@ topic

I'm very concerned about this name change and the fact that the initials now seem like a synonym for a certain militant group from another part of africa which was stamped out eventually by the british (dont know who founded it to begin with?)

Must everything gej does reflect cult association leanings?

btw what is gej's original indigenous family name since jonathan and goodluck are not found in any nigerian vocabulary.


moshood abiola almost never went by just two names. His full names are moshood kashimawo abiola (MKO). There is something very very fishy about goodluck jonathan and his backers (whoever they are).
