Yes we know sir, but the gullible psychopathic youths won't agree.

Abiola invited Abacha to overthrow Shonekan so that he, Abiola could be made President by Abacha, but Abacha betrayed Abiola his perceived friend, and rather held firm to power and never wanting to leave again.

Muhammadu Buhari, Abacha's close friend and ally didn't advice Abacha against the bad things he was doing to Abiola but today the same Buhari has cunningly recognized Abiola as the winner of June 12 election just to spite Obasanjo and to turn Yorubas against each other so they can condemn Obasanjo and hail him despite his wrong deeds in the past.

Remember Buhari was very close to Abacha, he refused to advice him to hand over to the winner of June 12 election Abiola, instead Buhari was more interested in his own political gains with Abacha, so he continued to hail & dine with corrupt Abacha and even went to collect a political appointment from Abacha and helped Abacha government in many ways he could as at then.


...and at the same period in 1993 or thereabout, Bola Ahmed Tinubu had already agreed to serve as Abacha's VP not minding that another Yoruba man Abiola has already won the annulled Presidential election which he was supposed to join hands and ensure his brother reclaims his mandate, no, he was desperate to become VP to the detriment of his Yoruba brother Abiola.

This is how treacherous these people can be to even their own brothers...

Let's go back to 1960s...

...and the power tuzzle between Awolowo and Akintola tore Southwest and later Nigeria to pieces in the 1960s, it led to the first military coup headed by Maj. Nzeogwu in 1966 which was later wrongly tagged *Igbo Coup* due to sentimental execution of the coup by some of the Igbo actors in the coup of 1966.

I don't know why most Yoruba elites are always desperate to rule Nigeria at all cost, just as Bola Ahmed Tinubu has started again today, when we tell future children how desperate Tinubu is today to become Nigeria's President to the extent of romancing with his adversary in the past (Buhari), they will think we lied, isokay undecided
BUT U LIED.

U always act as if Tinubu is the only sinner when it comes to politics in Nigeria.

OK, Tinubu begged for commissioner post in Lagos and he was not given, and he later team up to fight against abacha; in order to actualize June 12.

So what is ur grudge about that?

Bode George, that is pointing accusing finger at Tinubu didn't do anything to help June 12 courses.

Tinubu err in d 1st place, but later identified himself with d June 12 struggles.

Ebenezer Babatope (PDP chieftain), Jakande, Kingibe etc, started d June 12 struggles, but later joined Abacha ship.
All those names will not bother you, but Tinubu is always ur target.

You sit in one corner of ur room and write whatever u like as if u have always been perfect throughout ur life.

I am not say Tinubu is a saint, he has his own wrong doing too; but u pple like to paint a cruel pictures of him begin d number one sinner in Nigeria political space.

A son of former abia state governor, just got elected as d speaker in d state. No issue.

But let it be Tinubu's son in Lagos, all hell will be let loose.

Abacha was so powerful back then that his Vice, Oladipo Diya had to beg for his life in a fantom coup that Abacha masterminded

As Diya waited for the Abacha's hangman's noose, Abacha dropped dead suddenly, Nigeria and Nigerians erupted in wild jubilation. Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba celebrated his end.

Bros, you are right and wrong. Indeed, Diya begged for his life. However, we know that there was a coup attempt hence, Diya's guilt. Let us try to be honest and unbiased as much as possible. I don't know Diya or Tinubu or Abacha dem. I am just a Nigerian who has refused to be played for a fool.

Tinubu is well known for his betrayed and coward for the Yoruba people. that's why up till today he never team up with the Afenifere Pan Yoruba group to create love and unity among Yoruba people and leaders . it is about his selfish interest. putting his stooges in the keenly positions in Nigeria. read more of Paul ayo Adebanjo books, you will see the crooked Tinubu how he betrayed his Yoruba brothers and sisters. as far as am concerned, abiola spirit will keep on hunting him. thanks to bode George, Pa Adebanjo and other dogged June 12 Fighters for exposing him and speaking out about the struggle.

Abiola was in support of Abacha to forcefully take over an interim government.
plans were made on how various positions will be shared, which Tinubu maybe part of.
Abacha took over and refuse to hand over to MKO.
He declared him self President.
He got arrested.
kola side Tinubu later went to Abacha to ask about the then plan or appeal to be part of the Government (We don't know Tinubus's intention) But we are sure he has an ambition.
Abacha turned Tinubu down why? Maybe because he may be a loyalist to MKO)
Tinubu continue the struggle for Abiola till he realize he may lose his life then left Nigeria to continue his Struggle for June 12
Some Abiola loyalist worked with Abacha that time but Abacha rejected Tinubu. why?
MKO DIED
Obasanjo became the president
Tinubu attained his ambition.He became the Governor of Lagos State .
As this time the Federal Government wants June 12 to be forgotten.
But the Struggle continues
Where is Kola?
Tinubu declared every June 12 an Holiday during his Administration. Against the federal wishes.
He ensures it moved to others South West states.Even a state out side south west if I am right.
They Ensures June 12 is never forgotten.
Tinubu now a friend to Federal Government and at the same time June 12 was made a public Holiday and MKO was honoured.
Awwww Tinubu what an Ambition!!!!!
Here is Mr Kola ,now talking after June 12.After it was made one of the greatest public Holiday In Nigeria .He even said he may work for the present Government according to the interview. (But where have you been all this while Sir?)
I am glad Tinubu never dropped his ambition.
And I think most times people intentions to a particular course of action is very important.
This is Tinubu part of June 12.
And won't you rather be like Tinubu?

Trust a politician at your own risk.

However, if this account is true, then Tinubu must have learnt so much since then.

He is one of the very few politicians that hasn’t changed his political party since 1999, and has gone further to even raise leaders who continue to be relevant decades after his own political office.

He has also been strategic to the eventual recognition of MKO’s June 12 sacrifice so he can be forgiven for that particular error IMHO.

Eniola Akinkuotu
A former Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party , Chief Bode George , has commended Kola Abiola, the son of the late MKO Abiola, the acclaimed winner of the Jun 12 1993 election , for exposing former Lagos State Governor , Asiwaju Bola Tinubu , and other “June 12 opportunists .”
George said this during an interview with our correspondent on the telephone while reacting to Kola ’s allegations that after the annulment of the June 12 , 1993 election , Tinubu approached the late military dictator , Gen . Sani Abacha , and begged him for a commissioner appointment in Lagos State .
According to Kola , it was after Tinubu had lost out that he decided to join hands with the National Democratic Coalition to fight for the actualisation of the June 12 mandate .
George , who is also a former military administrator , hailed Kola for stating the facts even as he lamented that many opportunists were seeking to twist history.
He said , “It is true that Tinubu went to beg for a commissioner position . He was in the Villa and Gen . Oladipo Diya is a witness . He ( Tinubu ) said he wanted to be a deputy to a military administrator and when all that didn ’t work , he went into his activism .”
The PDP chieftain hailed Kola for deciding to make a documentary of the June 12 saga .
George said Kola must not be victimised for saying the truth since , as the first son of MKO , he was an insider.
He said , “Most of what Kola said is true. He spoke from the heart and he was trying to set the records straight in the face of the many narratives . He had been looking for who would help to recognise the June 12 saga so that his father wouldn ’ t have died in vain .
“In the course of this , he had bottled up so much . He went through a lot , having lost his mother and family businesses during the struggle . So , he was setting the records straight so that people would not rewrite history.”
The PDP chieftain , however , said Nigeria had yet to learn from the June 12 saga .
He said the lessons of June 12 go beyond declaring a holiday or immortalising MKO .
George said , “Now , June 12 has been adopted as a national holiday but have we learnt any serious lesson from it? Have we done anything to ensure that the mistakes of the past are not repeated?
READ ALSO : 43 % law students fail resit exams
“Yes , people are pontificating and trying to use it as a political tool but believe we have not learnt anything .”
The PDP chieftain said Nigerians were more united during the June 12 struggle than today and argued that more emphasis should be placed on uniting the nation through the legacy of June 12 .
Attempts to speak with Tinubu ’s media aide, Tunde Rahman , proved abortive as he neither returned calls nor responded to a text message on Saturday .

Bode George, Kola Abiola didn’t lose his mother “during the June 12 struggle”. His mother, Simbiat Abiola, died in 1992, well before June 12 1993 election, which was also well ahead of the ensuing struggle that lasted 5 years until Abiola’s death in 1998.

If prison inmate Bode George, who loves money more than his mother, and who PDP’s Jimi Agbaje called a “sick mind” recently, could get this simple fact that my daughter knows wrong, how could anyone believe his interview?

Bode George is a frustrated ex convict and looter of Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) funds. He is a worthless clown.
