whether the haters and Biafrauds like it or not. This is long overdue honour to the father of democracy.
It takes a government with a political foresight and highly intellectual paragons to take this decision.

Buhari has won the hearts of majority of Yoruba with this. it's just a matter of time that PMB will sworn in for second term.

PMB Till 2023

AridunuThomas:
While many Nigerians are grappling with the new public holiday declared for the celebration of June 12 as the new National Democracy Day and the concomitant recognition of Chief Moshood Kashimawo Olawale "Olanbiwoninu" Abiola as a former President of Nigeria, many has missed the declaration of posthumous award to late human right activist and legal luminary, Chief Ganiyu Oyeshola Fawehinmi, SAN the second highest honour of Nigeria, typically given to Vice presidents and chief judges of the federation, GCON.

Peep the last statement of the fourth paragraph of the President's letter

The Statement made no mention of public holiday

Well said bro.

QuotaSystem:


What a well deserved and overdue honour for President MKO and the indefatigable Gani.

What makes it even sweeter is that IBB - the nationally acclaimed demon of democracy - is alive to witness the glorious honoring of a man whom he robbed of his democratic mandate, and his crowning as Nigeria's eternal symbol of democracy.

The icing on the cake is that this hot pepper in IBB's eyes is compliments of none other than the man he also hijacked power from previously - President Muhammadu Buhari cheesy

I didn't want to say anything about this but I think you know the chief was living fine compared to the ragged human rights fighters we have now?

He was indeed a great man and I hope you learned something about his struggle.

This man is now beginning to have a good grasp of basics of politics. When he newly came in, he wanted to deviate from every norm he'd met on ground, but he later learned through a very hard way that he didn't prepare enough for it. He looked the other way and allowed highway looter become a Senate president . He would not send congratulations message to "elder statesmen" during their birthday like it used to happen before he came; he refused to give relevant attention to those who were instrumental to his election victory, and a host of others. Only for him to discover that all of these were making him unpopular and making him lose political foothold. This is another sign of a reset.

I fully endorse this statement.

Thanks for your observation sir. it's such a pity that am once like you before. The hypocrisy by those people is second to none. They hate you simply because you're Yoruba, Hausa/Fulani, or a Muslim.

For countless time I've been on this forum preaching peace among ourselves and what do I get in return, unity BEGGER and many unprintable names.

I've been on this glorious platform for a while now and what we address each other with is just PDP member and AC member.
Immediately PMB won the presidential election we start seeing many things, even GEJ people on this platform don't take it the way they are doing.
Both offline and online you see them hating just because you're not their tribe.

I wish you know how many threat, abuse I received from them on daily basis. The funny part of it is that all of them na anywhere belle safe.
Imagine people happy for the killings in Benue, Taraba and Kaduna just because they voted for APC.

Dear Madridguy, I think it's high time we stop all these abusive language on fellow man like ourselves. Irrespective of our political affiliation, ideologies, tribes and religious beliefs. Be on faceless forum like this doesn't necessarily mean we should be doing anyhow. It's a very small world.
I've learnt not to judge or condemn people base on tribe. And I can tell you convincingly that each and everyone of us, irrespective of where we originated from, we both have our strength likewise we are all weeks in some areas.
Let me take the time to say, I'm Yoruba.

You must either be a kid or an illiterate. Assuming you are a teenager, you should have used your thinking faculty, and should have looked up Google for history!

Buhari was the ONLY presidential candidate Gani Fawehinmi ever supported in his entire life! History cannot be distorted by clowns like you.

Buhari was the Head of State when Gani Fawehinmi ignored the rule made by NBA that no lawyer should take legal briefs regarding the military tribunals established to try corrupt politicians! Gani publicly told the world that he will take the legal briefs (and he did) because Buhari was a very honest man who was fighting corruption. NBA sanctioned Gani but he never cared. He stood by Buhari both as military Head of State and as a civilian candidate. That was the reason Keyamo willingly accepted Buhari’s campaign spokesman offer.

In all of Buhari’s previous attempts at the presidency, in Gani’s lifetime, he campaigned for Buhari.

So, next time, when you respond to issues, educate yourself. Stop displaying your stinking ignorance on social media!

Very appropriate response. He like the rest of his ilks commenting from lack of knowledge of issues. Worse still they refuse to learn the reason they are used as political specimens.

You're very correct brotherly, to be sincere not that I'm trying to take side with anyone and not that I've never noticed what you're complaining about. But like for me now; yesterday, today, tomorrow and forever; i have my name and my brand to protect both online and offline, I guess my mind set prompted me for quoting you initially. If anyone chose to be behaving anyhow anywhere, we don't all represent the same identity.

Educate the imbecilic children of hates and ignorants. PMB has attested to this fact before. That despite the illegitimacy of military governments, Late Chief Gani fawehinmi; GCON supported his government jailing of corrupt 2nd republic looters whose offspring still continued the hatred till date.
