Have you heard of "MAU"?if not,you maybe be wondering what that means. It means Moshood Abiola University,and end product of the Renaming of the prestigious University of Lagos by our "President"(trying hard not to use and adjective to qualify him).In a nationwide Broadcast to mark his 1 year in office,he capped it up with another "sickening and annoying" decision,something that has plagued the duration of his one year in office.
It sometimes bothers me maybe he is not thinking right or he has the worst set of advicers. I have been looking for good reasons to count him as a good leader, and anytime I try to adjust,he displays his incompetence and lack of understanding of the Nigerian situation. Growing from the wrong timing of fuel subsidy removal,annoying palliative measure that are(were) barely felt,increasing insecurity and now this again!....haba,are you sure he is not sick or is he just having the wrongest of people surrounding him?
Of all schools in Nigeria to tamper with,he chose UNILAG.
The name itself is household(international and National),considered traditional and with great meaning and symbolism attached to it. It might not neccessarily be a bad idea to immortalize Moshood Abiola by renaming a school,but not UNILAG!we have a polythecnic to his name already,a stadium and even a way.....what we should be doing to immortalize should not even be this again,but fruitous effort to ensure the survival and practice of true Democracy(which is lacking in our country). Sincerly,i do not know what section of the Nigerian society he wants to appeal to by this decision,But he has made the worst of decisions,it doesnt just click.
It will take years to be readjusted to,the institution and the name does not Tally,it will affect the morale of students,the prestige of the school...like seriously,what was he thinking,Did he even think at all? Immortalize a True Nigerian Democrat(if he was) of Democracy by making concrete plans to stamp out corruption,giving Nigeria Light and water(the only nation divided into 3 by water,yet lacks drinkable water),proper and Efficient management of mineral resources(produces oil,yet import is what holds the economy) etc you might not be able to fully solve this issues but make a bold step that will keep your name in the mouths of many for time to come.(Mr president ,hope u Hear this) rather than taking a very "annoying decision"
I sympathise with students of UNILAG,for the rashness of their president, and truly wish something is done to rescue them from this issue.Nigerians please continue to pray for President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan,sometimes when i measure his performance,i wish Yardua never died..cos he was better,presently he is the worst Democratically President In Nigeria(thats the way I see it oh).Please pray For our President ,that he begins to see the true problems of Nigeria and make efforts to solve them and not making unnceccassary Distraction or digression.
