Muhammadu Buhari University: ASUU under fire for describing proposed institution ‘a joke’ vanguardngr.com vanguardnews

Aisha Buhari had last Saturday during a townhall meeting in Yola, Adamawa State, revealed plans to establish a university in honour of Buhari with partners from other countries.

Speaking at a press conference on Wednesday, the scholars through its president, Ibrahim Taiwo, said it was worrisome that ASUU seems to have abandoned their major responsibilities of contributing their quota to the peace and development of Nigeria to the obsession with frivolities and diversionary irrational debates.

This revelation sparked indefinable outrage in a section of ASUU, which meaninglessly condemned and pooh-poohed the idea, advancing very flimsy reasons. First, they wrongly aligned the idea of a private university from private investors as conflicting with the public office held by President Buhari. Or how else, could one strike a nexus between establishment of a private university and its bearing with the Federal Government outside the approval for license? How does it conflict with public universities? Would the proposed university be funded with public funds? What is really the grouse of Omole and Aremu?

For academics to argue in this manner is disgraceful to Nigeria’s intellectual community, because silence would have been more golden. We fear these so-called varsity dons didn’t even pass their own JAMB to have become lecturers and harbingers of knowledge. We suspect these are intellectual touts and not academics.

Bells University isn't a joke. ABTI American University isn't a joke. Presidential Library Otta is a national monument. Remember how we started these on 15th January, 1966.

B ,H university, will make sense .

Despite all the FG fundings thru ASUU, Nigeria universities are still in shambles. Cry baby syndrome.

ASUU is nothing but a university 'Bully Boy' who likes to draw fake attention to itself for monetary gain, always. How does Aisha, establishing a private university in her husband name, either now or later take away FG commitment funding to Nigeria universities. Tell us.

She is not serious we want jobs
