Human rights lawyer, Femi Falana (SAN) has kicked against the move by the Ogun State government to rename Tai Solarin College of Education after the Awujale of Ijebuland. The administration of Governor Dapo Abiodun has announced its decision to rename the college of education after the monarch. But in a statement on Sunday, Falana said it is “indisputable that the late Dr. Tai Solarin, the founder of the Mayflower School, Ikenne contributed immensely to the educational development of Nigeria”.
Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun State has formally renamed the Tai Solarin College of Education (TASCE), Ijebu-Ode, to Sikiru Adetona College of Education, Science and Technology (SACOETEC). The Tai Solarin College of Education, located in Ijagun, a suburb of Ijebu Ode, was formerly known as the Ogun State College of Education. It was established in 1978 by the Ogun State government and in recognition of his contribution to education and humanity, was renamed after Tai Solarin, a renowned educationist in 1994.
