Academic Staff Union of Universities has taken exception to a proposed plan to establish a private university to be named after President Muhammadu Buhari by his wife Mrs Aisha Buhari saying the move is antithetical to the development of existing public universities in the country.
Wife of the President, Aisha Buhari had at a Town hall meeting in Yola disclosed that she would establish a private university to be named after President Buhari in partnership with some foreigners. “To me, I think, it is a disaster for this country and for a sitting president. The implication is that Nigerians should know that this leadership does not believe in publicly funded education”.
“It is not the children of the rich that will solve the problems of Nigeria but the children of the poor and the tool they need is quality education,” he noted.

This is Nigeria - Vanguard NewsTHE cloud of criminality and institutional impunity which have enveloped Nigeria are bitter pills being forced down the throat of Nigerians. In a country where the so-called activists have collapsed their structures into the ruling elite; where hitherto feared pressure groups such as the Nigerian Labour Congress, NLC, Nigerian Bar Association, NBA, and Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, are prioritising the self above the rest and the country; a state of nature is being birthed in Nigeria where human life is worthless and there is uncertainty about who is likely to see tomorrow. Institutional impunity has led to the murder of hapless young Nigerians in the Lagos megacity by those late Fela Anikulapo Kuti would call ‘animal-in-human skin.’ Were it not for ‘militarised mentality’, what would make a ‘professional’ police officer shoot unarmed suspect? How do you expect citizens’ loyalty when there is widespread injustice? The objective reality of happenings in Nigeria has been mirrored by the hip hop artiste, Folarin Falana also known as Falz in his phenomenal cover song, This is Nigeria. Unlike his cohorts who glamorise societal ills, Falze the Bahd Guy, follows from his activism background signposting societal ills largely domesticated in Nigeria. vanguardngr God bless NIGERIA. 🇳🇬
