President
Goodluck Jonathan on Monday, submitted a bill seeking to formalize the
change of name of the University of Lagos (UNILAG) to Moshood Abiola
University (MAU), Lagos, to the National Assembly
Despite the protest among the students of the institution, the government has said it would not revert to the old name.
Besides
UNILAG, the other universities the President proposes to rename are: the
Federal University of Agriculture, Umudike, Imo State, to Michael
Okpara Federal University of Agriculture and the Federal University of
Science and Technology, Yola, Adamawa State, to Adamu Modibo Federal
University of Science and Technology.
Jokes apart, I think President Jonathan needs to re evaluate and
seriously think about the problems of this country. I don't think one of
them is the names of our Universities since it won't affect the quality
of Education in anyway. I mean, Unilag Students feel bad enough to
demonstrate; with some of them threatening to sue the Federal Government
and he's just come up with another list of Universities to be renamed.
I
wonder why he's just sending a letter to senate to rename schools
after he has already announced Unilag's change of name without seeking
the Senate's approval.
