Students of The Polytechnic, Ibadan, are voicing their discontent over the recent decision by Governor Seyi Makinde to rename the school after late former Governor Victor Omololu Olunloyo.
The change comes shortly after Olunloyo's passing at the age of 89, a move intended to honor his legacy. However, the student body, along with alumni, has firmly rejected the renaming proposal.
President of the Students Union Government, Oladipupo Olamide, expressed profound disappointment with the governor's decision during a statement made in Ibadan.
The protest reflects the sentiment among current students and alumni who feel that the change does not represent their interests or the institution's values.
