June 12: Tinubu Reacts to MKO Abiola’s Posthumous Award
The National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, says President Muhammadu Buhari declaring June 12 as Democracy Day and the award of Grand Commander of the Federal Republic (GCFR) to late MKO Abiola serves as an acknowledgement that he won the 1993 election.
Tinubu made this known in a message entitled “The Immortalisation of Chief MKO Abiola”, made available in Lagos by his Media Officer, Mr Tunde Rahman.
He said that the award of the GCFR was also an acknowledgement that Abiola should have been allowed to serve as president after winning the free and fair expression of the popular will of the people.
