Yipeee! Congratulations to Unilag for winning this battle.
Yesterday, President Goodluck Jonathan withdrew the name change of the University of Lagos which he renamed Moshood Abiola University. In a May 29 broadcast to mark the 2012 Democracy Day, President Jonathan had announced to rename the school in honour of Moshood Abiola, who died in jail as a political prisoner in 1998.
But yesterday, chairman, Governing Council of University of Lagos, Jerry Gana said during his inauguration alongside three others by the Minister of Education, Professor Ruqayyatu Rufai in Abuja that the president had sustained the Constitution by reversing the change of name of the university. “This is a pointer to the fact that the current administration is committed to entrenching democracy and justice in the country.’’
