Since it's Throwback Friday and the late MKO Abiola is in the news, we decided to throwback to one of his 1993 election campaign jingles. watch the video below. Nigerians really missed the great business man in Africa.

Hmmmm... There was another one they sang in the stadium when we went to receive him. Before MKO arrived the stadium, we started dancing to the tune and the song goes like this: "Nigeria on the march again...on the march again... we are waiting for Mr President...on the march again... MKOoooo...is our man o... "

Mehn, when MKO arrived the the stadium, Nigerians were so happy as if we were in heaven, chai... I've never witnessed something like that again and can never forget it

Am I the government then? Me & you yearn for good governance but our leaders keep disappointing us because they are selfish & wicked.
Buhari is among the past leaders that have & are still bastardizing our national life.Well the political awareness is high now.
We'll keep changing them till we get it right.So our leaders now knows we can be taken for a gwonpy, gwonpy ride again.

Funny enough, I was in primary 4 then but had political awareness more than even some higher institutions students! I was by far the smallest and the only kid who went to the stadium by himself! The stadium is close to our house sha.Oron Township stadium in Akwa Ibom State. When I arrived the gate, the soldiers stopped me and asked where I was going, I told them I came to cheer and support our next President Chief MKO Abiola, they all bust into laughter and were surprised at my confidence.

They allowed me in. When MKO arrived, they took me close to his chopper so I could have a clear view of him

When the country was united before IBB divided the nation.

Can someone just tell us why Babangida just because of personal differences with Abiola nullified that election?

IBB hands were tied. I'm not supporting him o because he's a criminal. Some guys in the military were not comfortable having Abiola as president. Abiola's issues not becoming president had both internal and external dimensions but unfortunately Nigerians don't know these.


Abiola had once visited Fidel Castro. Again, he boldly said the West would pay reparation for the slave trade era when he became president and he would pursue it relentlessly. You should be able to decode where majority of his problems came from

Fortunate you-even able to see MKO then? I personally believe in Him because he have a winsome nature.
Besides military reign were becoming more boring esp.during the Babangida/Abacha era.My dad was surprise @ the political radicalization in me being a soldier himself.

my brother these are the words of Yoruba people. they never get tired till they finally get the final helper. buhari will be voted out in next year presidential election, and the Yorubas will votes in another grassroots politician that have the fear of God. Yorubas never get tired until they get the one they want.

please since 3 years Apc has been in the government, please what has they done to protect the democracy? you keep jumping one thread or the other defending Buhari that doesn't know your lineage. he will be voted out next year and you find another candidate to talk. so so painful for our democracy.

I am for good governance , not recognition by the ruling President

See this one lol

Out of those 22 years, PDP used 16 and pillaged the country's wealth , that's a known fact

IDP camps in Borno and Maiduguri have been there since 2012
