Nothing to amend. Section 3(3) of the Act already takes care of this. Don’t limit yourself to section 3(2) only.

In early 1980s, President Shagari conferred a national honour posthumously on the founder of stationery stores football club - Israel Adebajo who died in 1969. The award was collected on his behalf by one of his children.

Till today, nobody has stripped him of that honour.

Well, let's cut him some slack. At least he realized his earlier blunder and tried to make amends.

No one is perfect

Let's also commend whoever is handling his PR for this quick lesson in "how to spin your way out of a blunder"...
There was no blunder in what he said before. We Yorubas are just being too sentimental. The Nigerian constitution doesn't permit what buhari did. Dino has only come out to say this so that we will stop calling for his head.

Perhaps you missed the earlier blunder which I'm referring to

He actually said in essence that by dying, M.K.O was no longer a Nigerian.

But like I said, no one is above mistakes, and he has quickly backtracked.

The senator is quite good at remixes, y'know...
Re: Abiola’s GCFR Honour Well Deserved – Senator Melaye by contigiency(m): 11:53am On Jun 11, 2018
Dino, the time you used to canvas support for this honor was when you needed it for your popularity. Your recent actions in the chamber suggests you were never committed to the struggle. So this your recent change of stance is a further proof that you are not reliable.

Abiola or his children are not gaining anything by GCFR award. Yorubas are not gaining anything by the award neither being sentimental about it. Dino as a Yoruba man after his negotiated freedom from Kogi treasonable felony trials ought to keep his mouth shut for some time. Justice Belgore (rtd) pointed to constitution about the physical presence of the recipient. He is an old man. Dino should not have said anything.

Those calling & disturbing Mallam Tofa about the award are being mischievous & foolish. When GEJ announced the renaming of University of Lagos to MKO Abiola University before the students protested against the name change should have demanded for the change of University of Abuja to Uthman Bashir Tofa University as an equal honour for Tofa because in their foolish thinking, the election was inconclusive.

GEJ gave Ojukwu a state burial in Nigeria, no Hausa or Yoruba complained.
Re: Abiola’s GCFR Honour Well Deserved – Senator Melaye by Adedove(m): 12:14pm On Jun 11, 2018
To say 'Abiola is no longer a Nigerian' is an expression of ignorance. A senator is expected to know the law and a bit of jurisprudence. To say a dead man is without personality is to say that the laws surrounding testamentary instruments otherwise known as wills are 'ofutufete' that is void. In a layman's term, when a Nigerian drafts a will, the will becomes effective after his death. This shows that the law still recognises the dead man as a Nigerian. There are several other instances backing the fact that a deadman is still a citizen: the law that prohibits unlawful possession of human head is another. The senator should get himself learned in stead of jumping up and down from his car.

I did not miss any blunder, because there was none in the first place.

According to the constitution, the dead are no longer CITIZENS, as such, they are not entitled to such awards since they can't receive it in person.

Mind you, read between the lines, dino didn't really backtrack like you said. His point is that the constitution has to be adjusted to accomodate this new development.

Of course, they aren't benefitting from this. The only persons benefitting from this are buhari and his cohorts. They knew how to woo the yorubas over in order to get their votes.

Whether you admit it or not, we are being sentimental. The law is the law and should be abided by.

Thanks for the clarification. There's always a lot to learn

Can a posthumous award be received in person?

Again, according to the constitution, a title such as the GCFR cannot be given posthumously.
