The president this morning has announced that University of Lagos will now be called Moshood Abiola University. This didn’t go down well with a lot of Unilag students and according to reports on a social Media; the students have started protesting to this.
Do you think what our president did was right? Or the students are taking this too far? Pictures of the protest below….
What a gift to Lagosians on democracy day

ReplyDeleteUnilag students have invaded this blog. Occupy Unilag Lol
ReplyDeleteNow i understand the mindset of those that comment on this blog. They are mostly students about 25years. That why you dont know about Abiola and his contributions to Universities before June 12.Not that i agree with GEJ, who should have named a national monument after Abiola instead of this insult. Hmmmmmmmmm
ReplyDeleteNa wa o..dese students dnt even knw wat deir priorities are, imagine a skul dt doesn't av an existing student union nd dey cnt fight 4 dt, instead of dem 2 fight 4 gud education nd so on, dey r fightn bcos a skul was named after a great man. Make una go rest jur cos dis doesn't change anyfin. I rep babcock university
ReplyDeleteNa wa o..these students don't even know what their priorities are, imagine a school that doesn't have an existing students' union to fight for their yearnings and they are yet to fight for the re-installment of that, instead of them to fight 4 good and improved education and so on, they are busy fighting because the school was renamed after a great man. Make una go rest jur cos this doesn't change anything. I rep babcock
ReplyDeleteUnilag 50years of swag lost in one day LOOOOOLLLLL

ReplyDeletePeople dey vex but why now. Abiola fought for you people o
ReplyDeletethat's an insult to Nigeria to think Abiola was the godfather of kleptomanism back before al of a sudden he decided he wanted to rule,,.ITT...does that ring a bell? Nigerians and their short term memories...WTH? i feel Abiola reaped what he sowed and his sins are currenly being visited upon all his children as we speak
ReplyDelete@ anon 29 May, 2012 07:19..Abiola fought for Nigeria AFTER he has stolen from nigeria. i am happy to see his chilren are paying for his sins sha. so go ahead GEJ...name nIGERIA AFTER mko. Matter of fact, put his name on the new 5000 Naira bill...God is not mindful of man

What a shame. i am so ashamed of these children commenting here. Now i understand why they fail woefully in their job interviews. Would certainly never employ anybody from this university. Silly children. No manners.
ReplyDelete@anon 7.51 n 7.41, your father is very clean abi? In fact in your family, they are saints? oloriburuku omo. Go and sit down and ask questions. Other wise shut up. I dont know if your mother is the witch visiting Abiola's children ooh.Nigerians are wicked ooh. You need serious deliverance. Hateful child and beer palour gist.
ReplyDeleteI dont even know what you guys beef is all about. You are all a bunch of local retards. Unilag is not even ranked in the 1000 best Uni in the world and you are here making noise. When we come from our various Uni's, you guys usually hide because half of the time you are not in school due to protest or you are busy with your aristos or someone is writing your exams for you or all of the above. You guys should take a chill pill and keep quite. Go and ask your parents how you got into Unilag because you dont sound like seasoned undergrands or alumni students of a so called 'prestigious university' to me. All my Love form Ghana
ReplyDeleteHmmmmn, history pass history! Abiola the philanthropist vs Abiola the 'oligarch'.
ReplyDeleteDeyinka, sofri sofri, omo MAUL. lmao, I still can't pronounce it with a straight face. Moshood Babes noni.hehehe
Is it now Greatest Maulin, Maulan, Maulite or Maulu? lwkmd

DeleteKola Abiola is not even done paying for the sins of his father, now we want to bring that ill luck ontop of Unilag
ReplyDeleteOmo Ghana, go and learn how to spell please.
ReplyDeleteThis is interesting;
ReplyDeleteLawyers in the country would challenge the change of the institution’s name in a court of competent jurisdiction if it was not reversed by the government.
He said: “The University of Lagos was enacted by an act, so nobody can unilaterally change its name without an act by the National Assembly.
“I can assure you that this will be challenged in the court because it is an illegality”.
UItes be ready for your new name: Lamidi Adedibu cum OBJ Unifasiti
ReplyDeleteWe have some silly agbaya's here. so we shouldn't protest about Jonathan changing our school name. Think before typing next time
ReplyDeleteomo ghana, am sorry for ur lecturers, u are a disgrace to ur school wt ur epic write-up
ReplyDeleteAt least their school fees was not increased
ReplyDelete@Deyinka Onabanjo...With this uncalled attitude of yours in a social network,you cant even lead your family,let alone a country for a minute,democracy has made lots of Nigeria youth full of disrespect and arrogance.
ReplyDeleteThe fact that some people are protesting the change of name from University of Lagos to Moshood Abiola University indicates how far we have fallen in political and social consciousness. Do these protesters understand who Abiola was and what he represents in our nation? Who is worthier to have the University of Lagos renamed after him if not the foremost icon and martyr of Nigerian democracy? Do they know what honour the name of Abiola is bringing to University of Lagos, including President Goodluck Jonathan’s promise to also establish an Institute of Democratic Studies in the university? Do they know how much Abiola contributed to the University of Lagos while he was alive sans politics? Yes, Abiola contributed immensely to the wellbeing of several Nigerian universities while he was alive, but none more than the University of Lagos. Indeed, if there is one Nigerian university to which Abiola’s name should be fully associated, based purely on his financial and moral support, even before the events of June 12 1993, we need look no further than University of Lagos.
@holytot...I think there are two negative and ignorant impulses at work here. One is that some people are letting their ahistorical limitations stampede their politics and the second is that those members of staff, students and ex-students protesting are trying to redefine radicalism as ignorance and lack of intellectuality. It is in the latter light that I categorize the reaction of the National Executive of the University of Lagos Alumni Association.
