Soyinka: Why Abiola Must Be Declared Elected President by Nobody: 10:52pm On Jul 07, 2012 |
“MKO Abiola was the nation’s elected president. Let that fact be enshrined in the nation’s records, then we would have embarked on one of the tributaries to the amplitude of true national reconciliation”. With those words, Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, spoke on the anniversary of the death of Chief MKO Abiola, the acclaimed winner of the annulled June 12, 1993 presidential election. Abiola died 14 years ago, precisely on July 7, 1998. According to Soyinka, redressing June 12 goes beyond “dubious renaming ceremonies which generate needless and distracting controversies”. The Nobel Laureate message was entitled, ‘National Day of Treachery’ http://www.vanguardngr.com/2012/07/soyinka-why-abiola-must-be-declared-elected-president/ |

I disagree with you sir. it will only be deepening the foundations of illegality in the country because the said election was inconclusive |

Soyinka is losing it with age. SO MKO wasnt good enough to name UniLag after, but you want a dead man declared President. Some people just need to shut up when they have nothing to say. |
