JUST-IN:FG Renames Uniabuja after Yakubu Gowon

The Federal Executive Council on Monday approved the renaming of the University of Abuja as Yakubu Gowon University.

The Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, revealed this to State House correspondents after the council held its last meeting for 2024 at the Aso Rock Villa, Abuja.

Idris said, “The third item is that there is also a decision taken by the Federal Executive Council to rename the University of Abuja to honour elder statesman, General Yakubu Gowon.

“The University of Abuja will, henceforth, be called Yakubu Gowon University.

“Of course, the process will have to go to the National Assembly for all legislative work in that direction, but FEC has taken that decision to write to the National Assembly to change the name of the University of Abuja.”

Idris also revealed that the council will proceed on a recess from December 18, 2024 to January 6, 2025.
