Alumnus of University of Lagos (UNILAG), just like her predecessor. She actually crossed from Idi Araba to LASU. She's a thoroughbred egghead.

Oga I know, but you are abusing one of the Greatest Akokites too. She is more than deserved the position.....

Lagos has been mortgaged. Tunji Bello has been a commissioner since during the tenure of BAT, now his wife has been appointed substantive Vc. God is watching. They have lots of qualified Lagos State indigenes that could probably do better but instead Sanwo Olu prefer to favour his pay masters.
nonsense , as long as she is yoruba she is good for the job
