Happy birthday to Zik of Africa.

Yes, you were not perfect, but you at least took Macaulay's vision of 'self government' to 'independence'.

But that for Abiola is necessary, while the one for the first president of the nation isn't?

Inasmuch as most igbos were not happy with this man for being the first man to be scammed with ONE NIGERIA, I still respect his intentions for unity and peace.

The great Zik of Africa himself.

If only this man had formed a government with Awolowo and not chosen to align with the north that relegated him to ceremonial president, Nigeria will have been a better place.

Awolowo offer Zik the Prime Minister position but Zik chose to be ceremonial president. I etill wonder why?

linkin8k:

Is there an Abiola day or it is a Democracy day?

And is this June 12 Democracy day celebrating anyone's birthday? Yet you want to celebrate the birthday of a ceremonial President when the nation's first Executive Prime Minister and Ruler, who was assassinated in office, does not have his birthday celebrated?

Nigeria is yet to celebrate anyone's birthday as a national holiday.

June 12 is Democracy day, to celebrate not just Abiola, but all who took part as politicians and electorate, in that historic election. And to celebrate the culmination of the resistance it initiated that led to the Democracy every Nigerian enjoys today.

And yes, a Democracy day is necessary.
