UNILAG-MAULAG name change: Jonathan makes u-turn



President Goodluck Jonathan has reversed the change of name of the University of Lagos which he renamed Moshood Abiola University in a broadcast to mark the 2012 Democracy Day.
Chairman, Governing Council of
University of Lagos, Professor Jerry Gana disclosed this yesterday in Abuja during his inauguration alongside three others by the Minister of Education, Professor Ruqayyatu Rufai.

The name change had been the subject of litigation and protests from students and alumni of the institution while a court recently ruled that the change was illegal.

Share your thoughts...thanks!
