As well as the National Treasurer of ASUU, Dr Demola Aremu.
The badge according to ASUU is one out of many plans created, to persistently reject the renaming of the institution, after 50 years of existence and Global recognition.
The chairman described the Renaming as a wrong and immoral decision intended to gain cheap popularity, while stressing that, the government would be challenged legally, on all fronts.
The union has gathered the support of eminent lawyers, including Chief Afe Babalola (SAN) and Wole Olanipekun (SAN) to argue its case both at the law court and during the public hearing.
