Anambra State University in Uli has been renamed after the Late Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu in celebration of his 80th posthumous birthday. 

The Anambra State Governor, Peter Obi, announced the renaming in a live broadcast on the television station of the Anambra Broadcasting Service.

He reiterated the commitment of his administration to restoring standards which demand a simultaneous transformation of all sectors and the recognition of role models.

He urged the people of Anambra State to continue to seek ways of making the state a great one.

Late Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu was a Nigerian military officer and politician. He served as the Military Governor of the Eastern Region of Nigeria in 1966.

He was the leader of the unsuccessful breakaway Republic of Biafra from 1967 to 1970 and a Nigerian politician from 1983 until he died on November 26, 2011, aged 78.

Is Ojukwu a scholar? Ojukwu is one of the most well educated men of his time by far. It's even a wonder that he chose the military.

Are you a regrettable dunce? Ojukwu was a scholar. He was a learned person. He attended Oxford University and had an advance degree in recorded events. By the way, please understand the denotation of an English word before making a fool out your silly self.

Good news.
Well done Gov Obi

Although I'd preferred that the school is fully remodelled to meet world class, and then name after Chinua Achebe but Odimegwu Ojukwu University gives imports dignity and power and pride than the Evan Enwerem wanted to foist on IMSU in those days. That name, Ojukwu, carries with itself a bellicose freight that sends a shiver down the spines of some people wherever it's mentioned. Even those who hate the man cannot deny the gall that tastes in their mouth whenever they mention his name.

we dont care, As long as it is not a FEDERAL university.

Just like Oba Femi Awolowo University sounds weird.

However, since Ojukwu had many titles and a long middle name, it would be easier to use just his first and last name or his titles and last name though.
Emeka Ojukwu University
Or
Dim Ikemba Ojukwu University.

The Ikemba!!!

Emeka Ojukwu University (EOU)
The name sounds great.

This a actually welcome development even though its a Greek gift but the ANSU students will still massively vote Ngige that promised them school fees reduction.

It's long overdue, I have always wished for that before some other institution adopts the name. A welcome development. The timing is just right as a lot has and is still being invested in the massive development of the institution.
