Mama Patience set to Have 15-storey UNILAG Hostel named after Her

University of Lagos is set to name a 15-storey girls hostel after Dame Patience Goodluck Jonathan this Friday.



At a briefing yesterday, the Deputy Vice Chancellor, Professor Duro Oni, said the 15-storey building expected to cost about N3 billion would be named after the First Lady because of her contributions towards women folks.

He said: “It is a female hostel and the person due to be named after it is the President’s wife who has touched the lives of many women.”

According to him, like other tertiary institutions, UNILAG had been having problem of accommodation hindering students especially the female students getting to school on time, saying “about 28,000 undergraduates struggle for 8,500 spaces every year in UNILAG.” - Nigerianeye
