DO NOT COMPARE AWOLOWO TO MKO GEJ DO YOU REALLY KNOW WHAT THE PEOPLE WANT? 1. GIVE US GOOD ROAD (NAME THOSE ROAD ANYTHING YOU LIKE) 2. GIVE US ELECTRICITY (NAME THE COMPANY THE NAME YOU LIKE) 3.

PStylish: Hey guys.Relax.Take a chill pill.Its not the end of the world.MKO Abiola held Nigeria hostage for 5 years by holding on to his mandate. It took US intervention by way of eliminating Abacha first, then Abiola before Nigeria was set free. Too many kids on NL I tell ya.Susan Rica and Kofi Annan should know better and posterity will judge them too in the whole Abiola saga ! |

obviously, mr jonathan does not know about "branding", someone needs to tell mr president that it took about 50 years to create and market this brand nationally and internationally, and changing it for some stupid political motives is just bad |

yamakuza:there's a problem with it sweetie. Overseas you see universities bearing the same name for hundreds of years. There's a reason for that. When they want to rename something, they rename airports, not institutions of higher learning. 1 Like |

Ejiné: I don't really subscribe to the idea of naming established Universities after politicians. Looks nasty IMHO. If Abiola was semi-literate then you my brother are a cave man , by any educational standard he is better than you. A person who had a First class degree from the University of Glasgow and distinction from the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Scotland can not be classified as semi-literate 1 Like |

MKO Abiola was a great man. He can be immortalized in many other ways. Can Obama or any American President wake up one day & rename HARVARD or YALE? Can Cameron suddenly decide to rename CAMBRIDGE Uni? Sentiments aside, UNILAG is arguably our own Yale & Harvard in Nigeria, or at least it comes close to it. The name is a brand, lets forget about the words ''pride'' or ''prestige''. It is bigger than anyone. You cant just wake up one morning & decide to change it. Its not proper. 1 Like |

This sucks.. I just don't like it. University of Lagos says a lot instead of that jaw breaking name. In as much as i love Ojukwu, i don't want UNN named after him. He should get the Enugu International Airport.Sorry.. Akanu Ibiam. I though Ogun state has a university. That should be named after MKO. Leave UNILAG alone. |

University of Leeds University of Manchester University of Edinburgh University of Kent University of Glasgow University of Liverpool University of Sheffield University of Sussex University of Southampton University of Exeter University of Nottingham University of Bath University of York University of Ibadan Moshood Abiola University Obafemi Awolowo University Evans Enwerem University Abraham Adesanya University Can't you see the sharp contrast? All the universities above are the pride of their cities and they strive to live up to the good names. I cannot imagine Cameron changing any of the above names without due consultations. As far as in me lies, there are better ways to immortalize the dead. If GEJ truly accept Abiola as a National HERO, he should rename 'Eagle Square' after him and not just a south-west abracadabra. 4 Likes |

Can you imagine changing Havard to Obama University. Or Oxford to Queen Elizabeth Univesity. Or Cambridge to Tony Blair University? What will that tell or their corporate branding. UNILAG is name that was built over the years through hard work. There would not have been any importance attached to it if it hasn't connote some sort of meaning to some. Imagine the number of people, corporate organizations that has their business built on that name. Corporate organizations uses their collaboration as strategic market entry strategy into youthful markets. The President got it wrong. I beg to differ. This is turning corporate branding on it's head. |
