President Bola Tinubu has appointed new members for the governing councils of the University of Abuja (UNIABUJA), University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN) and Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka (NAU).
In February, President Tinubu dissolved the Governing Council of UNIABUJA and sacked the university’s vice-chancellor, Aisha Maikudi.
This was amid controversy over her eligibility, Mr Bayo Onanuga, the President’s spokesman, said in a statement.
The new governing council members for UNIABUJA are: Prof. Rosemary Egonmwan – South South; Dr Adedeji Adefuye – South West; Prof. Sarki Abdulkadir – North West and Prof. Aminu Dukku – North East

New governing council members for NAU are: Dr Nkem Okeke – South East; Ofoke Ugbala – South East; Dame Amina Yakowa – North West and Nojeeb Agunbiade – South West.
