Some Nigerians are now beginning to recall the unfortunate events that followed after the June 12 election was annulled by Ibrahim Babangida in 1993 which led to nationwide chaos. This is coming after President Muhammadu Buhari conferred on Abiola posthumously, the award of Grand Commander of the Federal Republic (GCFR) - 20 years after his death. The president also declared June 12, the day on which the election held in 1993, as the new Democracy Day. Pictured is one of the victims of the chaos caused by the annulment, Okanlawon, one of the unsung heroes of June 12. He was reportedly injured along with others when the Chief of Army Staff, Sani Abacha rolled out tanks and mowed down protesters who agitated against the annulment. According to journalist Richard Akinnola, Okanlawon who is now maimed - is fortunate to be alive as he survived the chaos which saw hundreds of victims killed. Despite several treatments and surgical operations, he is still limping. He was referred to India for further treatment and surgery but no financial help came and is reported to be still suffering till date.

It is nice this is being made public. The state government, Well wishers , Charity minded organizations or even the FG can help. Let him ,through a credible media firm, go public to raise funds for the Indian trip. Prettycrystal well done ,being following from afar since 1291.....don't even ask me. 6 Likes 1 Share |

....and 20yrs after, the chief adviser and strong supporter of the man that pressured for the annulment of that credible election and even headed the crushing of supporters finally decided to recognize the man they hated and killed and wiped his family as the winner and even conferred him with the honor of GCFR just to spite IBB and OBJ who advised him not to seek for reelection, and his people are rejoicing and already preparing in ecstacy to vote him in again for another term in office, hoping he announces Oladipo Diya as the rightful president in 1994 9 Likes 2 Shares |

You could have just wasted your precious life for nothing.same Yoruba people betrayed abiola. Ma no lo mo n wo eyin e. Meaning, lead the dance I'm behind you...so after things get wrong in the front,easier for them to turn back and later change the tune of the music. 8 Likes |
