The governments of Oyo and Osun States have appointed former Lagos State governor and leader of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as Chancellor of the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH), Ogbomosho.

This was contained in a statement issued in Ibadan onTuesday by Dr. Festus Adedayo, the Special Adviser to Governor Abiola Ajimobi on Media.

LAUTECH, a university jointly owned by the two state Governments, was established by the old Oyo State in 1988.

According to the statement, the choice of Tinubu, a financial expert, accountant and administrator, was arrived at after extensive deliberations between the governments of the two owner-states.

The former Lagos State Governor is expected to bring his administrative ingenuity and vast experience in public management to bear on the running of the institution and reposition it to meet the standard of its peers all over the world.

So i'm not the only one feeling so sad about this news.

In recognition of Asiwaju Tinubu

Kudos to the ACN govt

ACN should watch it. I won't say more than that.

What a sad development, why Tinubu?

So?

That news is a stale news in my school.I'm sooo sad cos very soon we'll be paying close 2 half a million too like LASU. Otunba Tinubu!

So this guy has really taken his mission to sap yoruba land dry to heart?

lol emperor tinubu take am easy o ! I just hope PDP would win in Lagos state 2015

Oh I thought I was the only one

Stale!

The two governments actually recognized Tinubu's inclination and insatiable craze for material wealth, they just have to give the d.e.v.i.l his dues...

Stale news by the way.

Only a fool would think there is any material gain to being Chancellor of a University.

Its more of a honorary position

Chancellors are usually Traditional rulers or Politicians

So it what honorary gesture has Tinubu done to be given such prestige ?

IT IS FOR POWER AND FINANCIAL GAIN NOTHING MORE NOTHING LESS

No biggie! Atleast if you ask me. The position of Chancellor has always been a ceremonial one or more appropriately honorary all through Nigerian history.

Nothing special about being a chancellor, its just a figure-head thing.

Pricing garri *yawns* drinkz water nd goez bk home coz da price 2 much

Though the position of Chancellor of a University is ceremonial, he has admission quota, benefits in contracts and other pecks.

This news is old news, it was in the papers some months or weeks ago.

May God not answer your prayer. Amin.

What about the fact that peace has returned to the school since ACN took over Osun and Oyo? Were you not aware of fights that turned personal between Akala and Oyinlola because of the school?

Some of you just speak out of extreme ignorance. A Chancellor of a University in Nigeria has NO business in the running of a school. He is on the other hand supposed to try and find credible Investors who can bail out the school in terms of infrastructure and equipment.
Its like appointing a GOODWILL ambassador for the school.
A very stale news by the way......don't understand why a 4 month old news will be making the front page!

Tinubu is the biggest and most influential politician in the SouthWest

And what is the financial gain does a Chancellor get from a University

WHile I was in University The Etsu Nupe Omar Sanda Ndayako was our Chancellor and does not have any benefit except attending the yearly convocation ceremony

I am beginning to think there is more to ALJ's anti-Tinubu stance than meets the eye.

Isnt Dan Inwuanyawu, the Chairman of LP, the Pro Chancellor of Adekunle Ajasin University in Ondo State? there is no fuss about being a Pro chancellor cos he has nothing much to do.
most university students in Nigeria are sometimes unaware of who their pro chancellor is. It is an inconsequential position

ACN arrived NOT TINUBU. So you mean Tinubu is the mature one that settled the fight between Akala and Oyinlola ?

Of course it is ceremonal BUT WHY TINUBU. It seems you do no get my point. What is the lust with tinubu and POWER ?

What good gesture has tinubu done to get such honour is my question

Akanbi_edu: I am beginning to think there is more to ALJ's anti-Tinubu stance than meets the eye.

Do you not see the in CORRUPTION FOUND IN OGA TINUBU ?
