One of the shortcomings of President Jonathan was that he wasn't decisive.
He should not have rescinded on that because he was exercising his power as president.
Unilag is a federal university and it is immaterial that it is situated in the south east.

Majority of GEJ's advisers were from the SE and wouldn't want him to honour him right even if they know the right things to do.

They were the only region who refused to vote for Abiola because he is obviously a Yoruba man.

Jonathan meant well by renaming UNILAG after Abiola but he is a coward by reversing it after the protest. Would Buhari or OBJ have reversed it?

Bolustical:
The calibre of people around GEJ never advised him well. Even if he was a dunce, his hordes of advisers ought to have told him it was a bad idea to rename UNILAG.

National figures are honoured with symbolic things such as currencies, popular national monuments, stadia, airports and not higher institutions from the person backyard.

Apart from naming universities after Zik, Ahmadu Bello and Awolowo, they were further dignified by putting their names on different denominations and naming airports after them respectively.

We already had Moshood Abiola Poly, why naming him after an institution again?

PMB did the right thing.

Ohaneze rubbed it on Buhar's face that they will reject him again if there is anything like third term despite knowing the fact that Buhari has a dictatorial tendency, na bloody civilian like Abiola go give Igbos sleepless nights ?

And for the purpose of records, the attached below is the result of states won and Lost by Abiola and Tofa .. The person I quoted is a myopic Yoruba Muslim. He's one of the reasons why Yoruba Muslim re suffering on nairaland..

Jonathan is not a student of Machiavelli. He thought been a good man is enough to be a good leader . It doesn't work like that in Nigeria, when every one can't love you no matter how good you are due to sentiment . It's safer to instill fear than trying to pursue love that they can fake and pay dearly for it.

I didn't know that renaming University of Ife as Obafemi Awolowo University really killed the school's legacy.


I have learnt something from my Yoruba friends today

You are spewing trash.

When the ACN took over the SW in 1999, they wasted no time renaming every edifice within their states to "honour" Abiola.

Abiola is the only individual in Nigeria to have the most public edifices renamed after him and we can thank the Yoruba ACN party for this.

And who told you that universities can not be named after an individual?

I know of OAU Ladotech and even a state university in Abeokuta that was renamed after Abiola in 1999.

Why then was it inappropriate that the University of Lagos was proposed to be renamed after Abiola?

This same UNILAG benefited immensely from same Abiola who not only donated cash to the school but has many buildings on campus built by him.

The truth is that the Yorubas opposed the renaming of UNILAG because it was being done by Goodluck.

There is no machevellian scheming or move that you can do when you are surrounded by pure blind hatred.

The only sin Goodluck committed was not knowing the level of treachery and hatred the Yoruba held against him.

IFE was not what it is before the renaming. There are schools with history and pedigree that changing names will make nonsense of it status. Imagine renaming UI /UNIBEN /UNN etc. Before those schools became what they are now, it will be alright to change name

This is a very daft response.

Out of four SE states, Abiola managed to win just one.

Was that the same way you gave GEJ and Atiku 1 out of 5 states?

You preferred northerners over your co-southerner. Years later, you people started talking about southern unity when in fact you have always been the region stoking hatred.

Same way with NCNC/NPC and bringing Zik out of retirement to divide the southern votes.

Na you people dey cry pass now.
Majority tribe now minority.

Going by your argument then PMB also did the wrong thing because there's already a stadium in Ogun named after MKO. Personally I think it's a very stupid argument and even more stupid views on the part of those saying UNILAG was a regional thing (Kola Abiola being the most stupid). Are you all for real? Do you know how many governors that school as produced? How could UNILAG of all schools be a regional thing?

We need to start thinking right in this country and leave stupid politics and quit being partisan. Ahmadu Bello University is in the North, Obafemi Awolowo University in the West, Nnamdi Azikiwe University in the east, so does that make them less national figures.

I'm Yoruba and I believe MKO deserves better even though he had his faults and I don't share his views but he was a hero in is right. That Abuja stadium hasn't hosted any reasonable event in a decade say for party primaries. If you must also think well, June 12 should have been MKO Abiola day not democracy day. We have Martin Luther King day in America and recognized by the US government, not a black rights day. This is a Greek gift for political points by PMB. Not done in good faith.

How my country men rate a stadium over a university says a lot about us and hatred to see beyond our nose o.

Make it MKO Abiola day and we will know you're serious. We already have May 29th as Democaty day. God bless Nigeria.

Brother you are fellow who have said the right thing
