He was a great man, for standing for democracy. lol, you people and your gaslighting, blackmailing and calumny. Lol

Listen Ojukwu, no Yoruba man anywhere cares about you people. We do not send you. We don't even mind what you chose to do with yourself. I dare say no Yoruba thinks about y'all enough to hate you. If Igbo man wins in Lagos and Hausa man wins in Osun, while Igbo man won in all of South eastern states then it's easy to see the cheap, unintelligent blackmail. Bro, Yorubas don't care about your existence or even the air you breathe in!
Keep lying to urself ....the while country knows already ... last year's election opened the eyes of other tribes on how tribal u guys are ...

Great man used against Nigerians by the evil genius.

Your brilliant electoral reforms will be remembered as the best.

Rest on Sir.

He wasn't that kind of person. Rumor had it that Babangida slapped him because he released June 12 election results.

Go and read the true history and leave all those hearsays from Lagos-ibadan expressway media houses. He was "ordered" to stop announcing the results. What else do you want him to do? In a military regime

Very upright and right thinking man. Introduced innovation. Risked his life for truth. When the election was annulled he kept quiet because any statement from him would have burnt the nation.

Refused to take any further government appointments.

For those that care to know or don't care to know... he was an Igbo man ... he did not play tribal politics..this is for that tribe that keeps on calling Igbos out. We can see who the real tribalists are in this country....

He announced SDP as winners of the election, despite Babangida telling him not to ... he was beaten black and blue by soldiers for defending democracy....defending an election a yoruba man won ... igbos voted massively for MKO .... but these yoruba people still decide to have so much hate for the igbos ... reason why I don't blame igbos that do same to them ... its obi that's their problem .. reason all other tribes should judge this matter and dine with a Long spoon while associating with them... u can all see what they did to Jonathan.... used propaganda to destroy his government, so they can get power ... despite a yoruba man ruling from 99 to 2007 ... while the one in asorock used tribal politics to get power ....very divisive and destructive tribe

Always remember that an Igbo man conducted the fairest and most free election in the history of this country ...but they choose not to give them presidency or even let them go ... one day all these will change for good
Shows you and your likes who loves sectionalism knows nothing about history. First to correct you Abiola lost in all Igbo states and secondly check the records with Humphrey Nwosu again. Your Igbo and Yoruba divide only exist in the minds of little minded fellow. Those who can eat don’t care about that. Grow up. Stop strongly exposing your ignorance.
For Example there are Igbos and Yoruba in APC and PDP and Even LP. So why all these useless noises.

No matter how well the late Prof. performed at NEC, the annulment (June 12) rendered it useless.


But the blame majorly goes to Babangida aka "Maradona of Africa" and his cohorts who, out of spite, prevented M.K.O. Abiola from claiming his rightly deserved mandate.



Adieu, Prof.!



Rest in eternal bliss!

Why do you have to lie about something easily verifiable?
Igbo had 4 states in 1993 and SDP won only 1 of those states and you said they massively voted for him, how?

Look, we're Yorubas and education is our watchword, from the days of our founding fathers, because we're positioned with exposure. We learn from and model towards the Whites, rather than staying logged with our bitter neighbours at home. It's this reason you see Yorubas excelling in the White men's land at a ratio astronomical than other tribes around.
hahahaha everyone knows the truth. The last election still fresh, we know who is who. Meanwhile stop the crap about been educated, that narrative changed long time ago. If you doubt visit WAEC JAMB and NUC. They will tell you facts about who is more educated. The Igbos are. So crawl back to your shell boy

You don't have to bring ethnic coloration to this. For your information though, in out of the four states in present SE then, Abiola won in Anambra while Tofa Won Abia, Enugu and Imo. "Igbos voted massively for MKO is not true".

My dear, every hate you think Yorubas have for anyone in Nigeria is imaginary. I swear it only exists in your people's mind. In fact, most of us Yorubas still patronize your people (ahead of ours) like we don't care, especially if you sell at a better price than ours for the same thing because we don't even see you as rivals–this is rare among non-Yorubas. Our goals is to be great, to go far in life and achieve great things along the White men like Soyinka did, like Tope Awotona did, like Gbenga Agboola, Adebayo Ogunlesi, Eniola Aluko, Tion Wayne, https://www.nairaland.com/6531702/victory-yinka-banjo-gets-19-scholarship, and so on. We are not poised to embroil with some petty lowlifers back home who are comfortable with being local champions and winning little things. Goodluck to una sha. We'll never hate you because we're never competitors. We're not in the same lane at all.
You are so daft and stupid. Why can't you not acknowledge what this man did against all odds he still conducted the best election in history and without prejudice against a Yoruba candidate wanted to make sure MKO won.

If Abiola lost in all igbo states did it change the fact that an igbo man against all odds wanted to announce the results as it is, without prejudice. You people need to be flogged everyday for one month at least 24 lashes every morning, so that you will have sense small.

The man that showed he can never be a coward like Mahmoud. He defied Babangida to announce the results of 19 states that showed Nigerians Abiola won as against the military junta’s expectation and for that soldiers took him into dodan barracks and beat him until he fainted. Young soldiers placed his head on the floor and were stomping his head with their boots . The scars and Injuries from that he suffered coupled with threats to his life and family from Arthur Nzeribe and his group who never wanted Nigeria’s progress through out his lifetime until he died. Without him story that Abiola won the election would have been like that of Awolowo in 1979 and 1983 elections. Tinubu in his democracy day broadcast never mentioned him because he was Igbo but he found it convenient to use the opportunity to condemn Igbos before he fell face flat on the podium
Mahmoud is a great man.

Obi has been conquered and defeated. Go and rest!
