Obasanjo Was Appointed President, Not Elected – Abiola’s Daughter by tempest69: 8:24pm On Jun 10, 2018
A daughter of the late MKO Abiola, Tundun Abiola, on Sunday said it was not by election that former President Olusegun Obasanjo got into office.

She believes that the former president was appointed by the then military regime to compensate the people of the South-West region for the death of her father – the presumed winner of the June 12, 1993 presidential election.

“Obasanjo was appointed the president, he was not elected president. We did not have any election in 1999, we had a coronation,” Tundun stated during an interview on Rubin Minds on Channels Television.

She made the comments in reaction to the declaration of June 12 as the new Democracy Day and the posthumous award of GCFR conferred Abiola by President Muhammadu Buhari.

Tundun, who is also a lawyer, commended the development which she said was appreciated by her family after a long struggle.

She, however, criticised former President Obasanjo for failing to recognise her late father for his contributions to the nation’s development.

The lawyer stressed, “When you know you were not elected, you know you were selected and just appointed president by the military, it is galling for him to have acknowledged a democratic process.”

“President Obasanjo and my father had a relationship then; so what happened in their lifetime continued even after my father was dead. He cannot bear the idea of Moshood Abiola – so he did not do it,” she claimed.

Yeah, rubbish OBJ; in fact, insult him. After all, one old dictator gave your late dad a posthumous award.

I give it to Buhari. He's succeeded in playing a fast one on Nigerians. I guess he now has enough votes to win 2019.

My thoughts exactly. Suddenly the Abiola family has become relevant in Nigeria's political sphere due to the misadventures of one clueless herdsman.

If you referred to someone who stood up to both Ibb and Abacha up to the point of death as a coward, what do you call Ojukwu and Kanu who both ran away after leading thousands of their brethren to their early graves?

In what sense? The only time their name comes up (from the lips of trouble makers) is when June 12 approaches and is usually forgotten after then.

She can use her words anyhow. All I know is that OBJ was elected through the masses as announced by our Electoral Body.

It's left for you to know if the Election process was Transparent.

There was NO real election in 1999. I was in PH on election day. Polling booths opened 5pm. I phoned Abonema same thing. OBJ recorded 2 million out of 2 million votes. My problem is a youth will take this falsehood, internalize it and convince himself it is true. Nigeria is a sad place.
OBJ will not end well. What will destroy him is this Bola Ife and Marshall Harry thing.

What should baffle you is how a grown up adult like you (educated or not) decided to make an illiterate your hero.


That's the dumbest decision ever that any sane human will make. grin
