June 12 has no benefits to a common man in the street, it's just an avenue for the elites to hold dinner party and spend our money, June 12 should not be a day of celebration but a for sober reflection, what gains have we made in our democratic journey? is our voice been heard by those in govt? Is our judiciary independent? Do we have freedom of expression? Does our vote count? these are questions that we should be asking ourselves . when you ask yourself these questions that is when you know if it worth's celebrating. A country where the leader of the highest policy making body is being hand picked by the executive, a country where a sitting governor kidnapped electoral body official and compelled the official to declare him the winner of the election , a country where some governors and their party leaders disenfranchised some citizens simply because they perceived that those citizens might vote against their candidate, a country where a father is a sitting senator (former governor) and his son a speaker against the wishes of the indigenes of the state. Why the celebration?

Not only June 12

Very true
