President Bola Tinubu has renamed the University of Maiduguri to Muhammadu Buhari University, Maiduguri, in honour of the late former president.
The announcement was made during a special FEC meeting on July 17, where Tinubu praised Buhari’s legacy of discipline, patriotism, and moral integrity.
“Before we take the prayers — in honour of his [Buhari’s] memory, with this special session of the Federal Executive Council (expanded) — can we adopt the naming of the University of Maiduguri with a new name — Muhammadu Buhari University, Maiduguri,” the President said at the end of the FEC meeting amid applause from attendees.
