Students Union used to be a thorn in the flesh of the military governments of those days. At least, so I heard. But nowadays they're only good in sharing of politicians blood money and being used as thugs to rig elections or waiting for external financial inducement before they start a protest.

He fought for the democracy that you ipobs and wailers now take for granted. Where were you and your parents when he was fighting for Nigeria's democracy? See, if you have nothing meaning to contribute, just read and exit the thread quietly. Sowore did not just fight for democracy, he's still doing his best to deepen democracy and hold our corrupt leaders to account. He's one of the finest gentleman this country has produced.

Since it has Channels TV, then it definitely was not 1993. That has to be 1998 after Abacha's death or after Abiola's death.

Channels TV began airing in 1996.


Modified:
And indeed I have confirmed with the John Momoh interview of Abiola after the annulment in 1993. This confirms that Channels were active, even if not yet airing, and explains why their name plate is on a microphone at a 1993 protest.

He (Sowore) also appears in this video of John Momoh (Channels TV) interviewing MKO in the heat of the political umpasse of 1993. Indeed he has come a long way.

Yes it's there with the reporter in the periphery of the picture.

Except Channels already existed in 1993 when there were no private TV stations in Nigeria at all.

I am of the opinion that Sowore will make a better president than PMB but the reality on ground shows that sowore stands no chance of winning. Buhari for now is still a pragmatic choice.
