Present was Oba Lamidi Adeyemi, Ikubabayeye, the Alaafin of Oyo. His ancestors ruled over a vast Oyo Empire and decided the life and death of many Yoruba, with the exception of the Ijebu who were never defeated in any war until the British Maxim guns subjugated them in 1892 at Magbon.
There were many other side shows with one being the conferment of a Ph.D., in Engineering on 70-year-old George Asuelinmen, a retiree. There was a lot of excitement about this stellar achievement which goes to show that it’s better late than never. Almost all on the Chancellor’s first row, stood up in recognition of Dr. George Asuelinmen and had photographs with a role model that would, in saner climes, have been conferred a national honour.
The Visitor, President Muhammadu Buhari, who was represented by Dr. Chris Maiyaki, Deputy Executive Secretary of the NUC, equally noted the unnecessary challenge to the claim of Unilag being the University of First Choice and the Nation’s Pride, as a result of the turbulence of 2020 that unnecessarily delayed the conferment of degrees and subjected the University to ridicule.
We all know that Nigeria is worse off than when President Buhari came to power in 2015. There is general apathy in PMB’s fight against corruption. Compliance with the UN’s Convention Against Corruption that we signed on to has been thrown overboard by his Attorney-General who has done like his predecessor on that issue. Of course, I know he would tell me he set up a Committee on implementing UNCAC in 2017.
