Na serious kasala bust for University of Maiduguri (UNIMAID) as ASUU chapter for the school don raise alarm say dem no go gree make anybody change the name to Muhammadu Buhari University. According to Dr. Abubakar Mshelia Saidu wey be the chairperson of ASUU UNIMAID, dis renaming wahala na pure politics dem wan use rub the face of academic integrity.
ASUU no waste time to talk am clear-clear say the move na “affront” to wetin UNIMAID stand for. The name wey don dey shine for over 50 years no be wetin person just go swap because of Federal Executive Council (FEC) special meeting wey dem hold July 17. According to them, this kain gbege na like pouring pepper inside cold garri — e no just make sense!
ASUU Ready for Full Gbas Gbos: “We No Dey Smile!”
As the matter dey hot, ASUU don start to mobilise dem full battalion — from Congress, old members (a.k.a. veterans), to executive council — say make everybody show face for this resistance. Dem talk say dem no go just shout anyhow, dem go respond with gra-gra, facts and serious intellectual gbas gbos.
Dem warn say the move go spoil UNIMAID’s hard-earned reputation just because some people wan use political favour dey do “name wey no concern dem.” E be like say dem wan rename UNIMAID like na football club — every season new name. Even people outside the university don dey para as the name “UNIMAID” hold sentimental and academic value for many people wey don waka through the school.
Na Who Dem Wan Impress? UNIMAID No Be Decoration!
UNIMAID wey dem build in 1975 don dey survive plenty wahala — from Boko Haram to brain drain — yet the school still dey shine like morning sun. Now, dem wan come pour palm oil for white agbada by changing the name to honor Buhari wey already get schools and places named after am? ASUU talk say this one na overkill and e go divide more than unite.
Dem come beg Nigerians, alumni, students and even Mama Bisi for front gate make dem raise voice say: “UNIMAID must remain UNIMAID!” ASUU say na all of us suppose join hand to defend the legacy of the school. And make nobody think say this protest go die down — dem don prepare for long ride, and this matter no go end with just press release.
So if you dey wait for silent treatment, sorry o — na high tension gbas gbos full ground now. Grab your popcorn, this academic drama just start.
