Police men stormed University of Lagos gate some minutes ago and began shooting and throwing tear gas around. They've locked the institution's two main gates causing serious traffic around the area. Students were supposed to continue their protest today after suspending it yesterday out of respect for their VC who was buried yesterday.

I'm really getting sick and tired of this MAUL student. they should go and study and stop being nuisance to the public.Unilag is a federal government property so they can do with it whatever they(govt) so wish...
chuks
These kids will soon die for nothing. I don't even understand why they are protesting.
So far its all because its not a tush name. If they were protesting because the federal government didn't follow the right procedure, i will understand.
ASU is already resisting the name, they should chill abeg.
I really hope no one was injured or kill cuz these policemen can be senseless.
Una no wnt 2 grad abi, wat is in a name if una no lyk make una commot so dat admsn seekers wil take una places fools in school
johnny boy wants to bite off more than he can chew
what does Fashola have to say?? Or does he nt control the police here. This is why we need state police mschew
Attacking peaceful protesters is all police can do in Nigeria.
What are they protesting?
What are they protesting?
If only oga GEJ can use this kind of might against boko haram, Nigeria would be rid of those nuisance. but no, he wont. he can only try his might against hapless citizens!
Imagine!!! They've forgotten we'r students... U need to see how much they were... If its robbers or boko haram now, dey'l disappear... U won't even see them... Now they have liver cos we'r students. Shame on Gej n the police force
Again our Irresponsible security agents are at it, flexing muscles on unarmed individuals while robbers and terrorists hold sway..
http://omoirefo.blogspot.com.au/
Let's be realistic. What can the students possibly achieve from all this fighting and protest??? Bearing in mind the kind of goverment that rule us?? I honestly think they should giv it a rest so that this dosnt affect their accedemics. Prostesting Will not change a dumb presidents mind
mehn dis situation z rili getting outa hand....something reasonable should be done 2 avert d evil dat awaits... GOD BLESS NIGERIA,GOD BLESS MAULITES,GOD BLESS LINDA,GOD BLESS ME

GEJ is a bastard and a bully
omg, jona brought this on unilag students..wth!!kmft!...unilag graduate for life
omg, jona brought this on unilag students..wth!!kmft!...unilag graduate for life
GEJ's Blood thirsty demons wants some unilag Students. My advice, the students should just forget about the protests and Head to the Court with good lawyers.
Our government has lost it again through our shoeless President. UNILAG students were asked not to staged any protest for now, as youths who respect and obey their elders, the instruction was obeyed. The institution has declared a 2 week academics free period to address pressing issues, which students also obeyed without protest. This morning as academic activities have been grounded, students obeyed not to protest and been restless decided to gist amongst themselves cracking jokes and playing ball, only to be attacked by the Police by 11 spraying tear-gas spontaneously at them. An asthmatic patient had a massive attack and we hope she doesn't give up. Our government is applying violence to peaceful people. Right now (11:45am) the students have decided to face the Police and have succeeded in pursuing them. These are youths that have been pushed to the wall. We don't want another Syria, but the government has provoked the youths. The youths are fighting for what is right peacefully but the government is approaching violently.. The Youths are ready to fight for what is right.
Plz nobody shld lose their life cos of 1 stupid name
Linda,stop callin it University of Lagos.....u kno d name alrdy

Jona is a cowardly moron..during #occupy and Unilag protests brought out the big guns..but for Boko Haram..u see only a few random armed police.ode he would rather negotiate with those BH murderers!!..u would never win 2015..ko le she le!!
Dis is really uncalled for,both d prolonged protests and the shooting.
Dis is so uncalled for,both the prolonged protests and the shooting.
I tire for Linda and all dem media houses. Its now MAUL simple.
unconfirmed report is that one student was hit by bullet.
topeorekoya.blogspot.com
God please safe our kontry, 9ja. but in the first place why wuld d name be changed jst like dat without letting the student knw abt it, am not in support of Mr. President
may God punish any body that calls it MAULAG!!!!!!!!
Police, please when Boko Haram comes along please try and show this kind of force .....mschewww
The name remains UNILAĞ forever!!! Students fight on. Policemen sheath ur swords/dane guns. Jona, GTH; already causing traffic in VI. All those saying d name is maulag are doing so out of jealousy. Many of dem did not score enuf marks to get admitted to nation's university of first choice. Most of dem graduated frm one glorified sec sch called uni located deep inside a bush somewhere in d hinterland. Lolzzzz. UNILAG is our treasure and pride!!!
Shut up,ur type will complain now and vote for him next term. Open ur watery eyes now
We are protesting for our school, our pride, a right to our well established, prestigeous name, recognized far and wide, created by an Act of Parliament, incase u dnt knw, it means that no one can get up and change d name like... Its against d rule of law... We won't sit down & allow a certain fellow use our school 2 score cheap political points... Thank U
Adepoju ifeoluwa......

Well spoken! Thanx
And punish u too for calling it Unilag!!! Onye iberibe.
I live very close to Lag and I assure u dere is no shootin wtsoeva...people r just blowin it out of proportion. Instead of shootin, d students r dere dancing and listenin to music from Fela
Madam linda be careful! Its maulag. Anyway, dt is small o, I dnt evn kare if anybdy dies. Mtcheeewww... Kal mi insensitive o, I dnt kare cos ds protest is senseless as far as em cncerned. If they want 2 potest, they shd go 2 Abj. When we wr in sch, protests ar chanelled 2 relevant authorities. Tot they ar goin 2 court. The acting VC sef is a failure! Cluless leaders, cluless followers. Linda if yhu like dnt post mi comment. Duh...
Ppl just open thr mouths and talk ignorantly. You don't live in the north so STFU, you don't knw what d police and army are doing 2 Boko Haram. Come 2 zoo road in kano, its gun duel evryday, they kill ds ppl like animals and parade thr dead bodies 2 provoke dem 2 come out. Dem plentie!!! So na small small. Plus d evryday recruits. Its not evrythng dts reported by d press. So mk una kip quiet. If maulag students like, they shd kip protesting, tot they wan go court, they shd go na and stop causing unnecessary chaos. Den d persn dt said its govt strategy 2 dis-stabilize lagos, pls wake up! Did govt send dem 2 protest? Shallow brains protesting 4 swagg.
The school has been shut and students decide to stay back and protest....What? Change of name? Spoilt brats... Dem no wan read. The Student union leaders don collect money and now they have to show that they did something with it...
Lazy Stupid Student...Go back to school...Cahouse
Unilag Babes Reject the name MAULAG!!!
Must Watch.... EXCLUSIVE

Your docility is so irritating,i pray Nigerians'll take a cue from these bold students and realise there's truly strength in numbers.Meanwhile u docile fool shd sit there n wait till this tyrant jona mixes ur excreta with ur vomit as staple food 4 ur entire family.Fucking weakling!!
my people come 2015 go out nd vote en mass do not vote anything PDP. WE HAVE HAD ENUF.
A democratic president cant wake up 1 morning and change the name of a university that is a brand worldwide. He didnt even follow due process the nerve of jonathan. We re nt protestin cos d name is uncool. But bcos its a brand its a symbol it isnt a thing to b used to score political pts.for heaven's sake,they re buildin 6 SIX NEW UNIVERSITIES. WHY NOT GIVE 1 OF THEM THE NAME. Things like this make me doubt if there is hope for nigeria.
Mscheeeeew! Misplaced priority. ΨђA̶̲̥̅Ʈ fucking name do Ʊ® schl have? Besides, it's not even I̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̥̅̊ the top 10,000 schl I̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̥̅̊ Africa. Abegi, make una channel una energy into improving Ʊ® GP than making a nuisance of urselves.
Seconded! Tell me how has name change affected the certificate or individual performance. Bunch of lazy students n olodos.
Uncle Jona has got it totally wrong here!! Plzzzz what is d economic value or renaming UNILAG?
This is not one of those decisions a Leader sticks his neck out for!! Why remove d pride of a people against their wish? He is here flexing muscles with students to prove that he is not weak!! A Leader with good self esteem will simply revert status quo and playfully apologize!
Ahhh yes. Our able-bodied policemen are at it again. This is where they shine. Bring armed robbers now and let's see what will happen.
Good for nothing students,by the time they must have spent 13 semesters in school,then they can now inherit the brand name UNILAG. #Gross disrespect to Abiola.
d great brand name UNILAG cannot just be changed over 9t because a president wants to honour a man whom the same government cheated as the rightful president of Nigeria...without consulting d student council,the skol's senate,asuu and oda bodies ....it is very derogatory and simply means we are in a military rule disguised as democracy....unilag students and their administration should not allow this
i pray no one loses his/her life. I tink the students should let things be.
U pple shud beta go n face ur books bcos nfin concern police oo. Anyways I trust d protective mothers wud av called their children home...protest 4m nw till next year its nt gonna change anytin just extra year n remember dat these pple don't av children here so d eariler u realize dat d beta 4 u pple!
All this Idiots who went to second rate universities are gloating on the decicration of UNILAG.They want to take away our swagger.No way aluta continua Victoria acerta. If it takes voting out these illiterates from Aso rock to scuttle this idiocy let the games begin.My certificate is from Unilag and will remain that way nobody can change that.
it is in situation like this the s.u.g,various campus fellowships,various fraternities,and every meaningful association on campus shld put their differences aside and fight as 1 to kip their skool name....4get the differences...coz we dont knw whats up their sleeves again...and imagine 450k for skol fees in a fedral university...that's total BS....
It is MAUL until stated otherwise linda...
Also,maybe this student are too young or naïve to realize riot won't solve it for them...
Heard the alumni is in court already so they should take chill pill.
This students should check history of OAU(from UNI IFE) to understand that no change comes with ease... Is it the name that will give them job? Or make the straight A's them?
Make dem go read dir buk jor.....abi na name dey lecture dem.....
Na wa o....dis 1 U̶̲̥̅̊na dey insult GEJ na him throw teargas?....MAUL is a fed sch so dey v d ryt 2 do wat dey wnt wit it....d students shuld go n read dir buks n allow ASUU 2 sort tins out....dis dir story don tire person jare.....
Has anyone died yet?
SOME TIMES IT IS GOOD TO READ AND EDUCATE YOUR SELVES SO THAT YOU ARE NOT HOOD WINKED ON OBVIOUS ISSUES BY THE GOVERNMENT OF THE DAY.
THE 'UNIVERSITY' REMAINS UNILAG UNTIL THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY AMENDS THE ACT THAT ESTABLISHED 'THE UNIVERSITY' IN 1962. SO MAULAG EXISTS ONLY VERBALLY DESPITE COMING FROM THE PRESIDENT. SO THE STUDENTS ARE RIGHT TO PROTEST. YOUR PRESIDENT MADE AN ILLEGAL ANNOUNCEMENT AND HE AND HIS CROONIES WANT TO 'DO WORKING FROM LOOKING AT THE ANSWER IN THE BACK OF THE BOOK'. THESE STUDENTS ALSO PROBABLY VOTED FOR HIM SO THEY SHOULD RIDE ON. ALL IT TAKES IS A STRAW TO BREAK THE CAMELS BACK AND SOMETIMES IT TAKES WHAT MAY SEEM AS MUNDANE AS A CHANGE OF NAME TO DO SO. UNFORTUNATELY UNCLE JONA PICKED ON THE WRONG NAME TO WANT TO DRAG INTO HIS MESS. IT IS ALL POLITICS AND NIGERIANS, FRIENDS AND FOES OF UNILAG NEED TO RESIST THIS ONE. AND THEY SHOULD ALSO RESURRECT THE UNI-IFE/OAU MATTER WHILE WE ARE AT IT BECAUSE THAT ONE WAS A DECREE UNDER MILITARY RULE. OYA OVER TO THE COURTS!! IF THEY ARE SINCERE AND FOLLOW THE BOOK THE STUDENTS WILL CARRY THE DAY
Until the act is changed its still unilag. Pls stop displaying ur ignorance
MAULAG! UNILAG!! Well, Hon. Patrick Obahiagbon has said it all here www.mynaijainfo.blogspot.com
NIGERIA POLICE if u see boko haram or arm robber una go take off say una no get bullet.na for our body una dey get power.PLSS NO VOTING FOR PDP IN 2015
God punish Satan. I no go better for devil at all at all. Naija I still dey hail us. I go better very soon.
Gan ask google
Well,not in support of the name change bt I'll rather go to a "glorified sec skl" like u called it,which in real life is a PRIVATE uni where we are not known for prostitution and all that sh*t.. Thank God I did.!
Fuck off,jealous goats.u r all like ur president GEJ.He's only jeslous of great akokites cos he would never have smelled unilag not as a student and never as a lecturer.AFO ANU PRESIDENT.
I wonder o....What is in a name?..whatever happened to OOU and OAU?...This is the height of indiscipline!....Linda sorry to say but that lady was right when she said you AREN'T A ROLE MODEL AND WOULD NEVER BE ONE!..you know the new name so y don't u stick to it?WTH!...They should start locking pple like u up,trying to foster trouble!is it a good thing that students take to the strs bcos of a name change?isn't abiola a yoruba man?would it have been better if they named it afta obj?or a hausa person?this man died 4 democracy and contributed to the economy and by so doing created jobs!so what's d problem?this is just the height of indiscipline!na bcos una see una president finish na that's y!..!sad!
EXACTLY!...indiscipline at its peak!
VERY TRUE!....indiscipline!
Please people tell me is our President still the classroom teacher from Otueke that suffered to go to school and who we were told loves education? Just asking.
U shud be d one shutting ur mouth!bad belle
Some lil advice 2 maulag students;accept d name or go and sit 4 anoda jamb#gbam
U shud be d one shutting ur mouth!bad belle
Let me remind u daht u d students r at lose cos dis lecturers ur protesting wid hav dier degrees already MAUL Has come to stay incase u don't knw GEJ will not go baq on it. He did wrong by not ffg due process buh suspending ur school cos its new name isn't tush, isn't sensible to me.
Am so in support of u eh??
And you are a confirmed idiot from your statement. It is people like you that give the rubber stamp to the fact that this generation is a wasted one. Imagine what u have written!!! Please read it again and see whether it is sensible and as reasonable as u want it to appear!! Ignoramus!!
EXACTLY!...indiscipline at its peak!
I don't subscribe to u insulting the blogger,Linda.Seem u had beef for her before. Like u said MKO contributed economy and died for democracy,but why can't the national assembly,a symbol of democracy named after him? The house had suggest the national stadium be named after him,why not?The naming has political undertone,South West won't make the mistake we made the last time.This is the 2nd time it will be happening.OBJ 2nd term and Jona 1st term,both huge dissapointment.
1) Jonathan was cluless and dogmatic 2 av changed d name of dat institution! e shud av @least consulted d sch admin.even if fg runs MAULAG,dey stil av 2b democratic in any decision dey take, not authoritative! 2) fyn , e changed it, so? Its just a name change.. Maulag student shud jus get over it already.. Y pause sch activities bcos of just a name change.. JonathaÑ won't change it Am sure.. And dis occupyunilag shit won't work..u shud knw dat alreÁdy! Luk ow well occupynigerÍa workd owt(sacarsm). We are stil battlin wid Ð owtcum of d subsidy removal! U guys shud go bk 2sch abeg.. D cause u are fytin 4 is baseless.. Its not lyk d name change wil cÀuse famine or mass killings or woeva, d standard of education u wil get is stil d same as b4!so y kil urselves over nothing! Mehnnn... Y'all are sumfin else fareal... Iwe o tie ka yÍn lara rara..
Very correct! But wait a minute, he I̶̲̥̅̊s̶̲̥̅̊ now Ʊ® president and also τ̅☺ all other so called akokite. Ode oshi. U̶̲̥̅̊ had better face Ʊ® book.
I remeber some yrs ago universities went on strike for june 12.
Thesame yorubas who said 'he is the messiah' then r now saying 'crucify him'.
Huuummmmh! Hausa ppl r laughing at us yorubas.
All these morons refering to Uni Ife change to OAU....please go and read Segun Adeniyi's take on that change(Thisday backpage Thursday May 31st). He was an undergraduate in Ife when General IBB renamed Ife. Oh, I forgot GEJ is also a field marshal. Baggers!
y r u so pained..cud it be dt unilag denied u admission dts y u are so pained dt linda used d name...dnt pple still call oou "osu"or oau "university of ife"...y r u gettin urself so worked up
All of Ɣ☺ΰ condeming the student. Open ur eyes, its not d name that's the issue, its the approach. How can there be a name change witout any dialogue. He made this decision alone and its wrong. We are in democracy. If Ɣ☺ΰ leave little things, be also ready to leave huge ones.
U Guys should Free us na we rep unilag
