The Federal Government has said the decision to name the university established by an act of parliament in April 1962 was done in the best interest of the country and that the protest was not a disapproval of the decision to rename Unilag.

Minister of Information,Labaran Maku told State House correspondents on Wednesday.''The decision has been made in very good faith by Mr President and we have seen the reactions by a section of the students of University of Lagos,We have also seen the outpouring of encomiums by patriots and statemen who really understand the reason why the President honored Abiola.It's our hope that reason will prevail and that the decision to honor one of our nation's icons and heroes will be appreciated by all Nigerians including our youth and students who are the future leaders of the country''

    These students will regret their action in years to come.They are still immature,that is why they will behave this way.Certain freedom we enjoy today is becos democracy has been entrenched in our country and this is what Abiola fought and died for.His wife also died in the process.They have no clue what they are doing.
