No matter the politics involved. It is still a good move.
His sacrifice should not be forgotten in a hurry and so is the sacrifice of the whole country that stood with him.

Good move.

Now May 29 should known as Democracy Handover Day
June 12 Democracy Day
May 30 Biafra Day

Buhari, your desperation to retain power is so strong.
One thing is certain, you might succeed in deceiving some fanatical yoryuba Muslimns, but you can't deceive progressive/Yoruba Christians.
We Christian Yorubas will not vote for you in 2019.
We won't vote for someone who is busy killing our Christian brothers in north central because we all know that once you are done with northern Christians, you will face southern Christians, Yoruba Christians included during your second tenure.
God forbids.!

If Abiola is so special in Yoruba land as you want to paint it, why did my people reject renaming Unilag after him ?
Abiola has come and gone, we have our way of mourning and remembering him.

Terrorist Buhari, your antics is dead on arrival .
Progressive Yorubas are wiser...
Shut up! Are Muslims not being killed too? Which Yoruba Christian can demonstrate his love for Christ and faith like the little Northern Christian Leah Shaibu. Girl? Come they rant here, go out and preach the gospel, were Christians not killed during the Apostolic time?

Hmmmm the elderly man says na corner of mouth person dey take chop kolanut
So yesterday we heard the news that June 12 is now democracy day
Same June 12 that the Yorubas stop observing after they won elections under APC in 2015.
And I watched Yorubas scream and dance
Ewedu and gbegiri was served free in all iya barsiratu amala joints.
Agberos gave free tickets
Even bisi our street prostitute allowed me to press her yansh for the first time.
Is this how gullible a whole tribe can be.
Suddenly buhari is the best thing after agbo jedi jedi
Even after he disgraced their demi god tinubu
When emir sanusi said Yorubas are the problem of Nigeria I was wondering how he came about his notion
How can a people forget so soon
Now the killings in the middle belt doesn't matter
The killings in ife doesn't matter
A traditional ruler of Yoruba culture was arrested like a common thief
Yet it doesn't matter
The killings in their farms
It doesn't matter
You see why most of us hate this tribe
How they are helping the north destroy the nation just for a few crumbs
All they say is OBJ didn't recognize MKO
Buhari has done it
So all his sins are forgiven
Now he will get Yoruba votes
South south south east
You see why we laugh at any handshake across the Niger
These people will never change
Their aim is to undermine us
Make sure we don't achieve anything
We should be wise
This is a wake up call
The Yorubas are not our friends
They hate us more than we know

So this is how far your brain can think! Comparing this honour with renaming Unilag? Are they on the same pedestal? Wouldn't Unilag loose it's hard won name in that process?


Oh ye of Indomie generation, who will save you from ignorance since your brains are too lazy to learn and comprehend?

With this honor, the President has done what should been done by previous government. Better late than never. I salute the courage of Mr president for given back to the Nigerian masses our stolen mandate. I am happy and also appealing to Mr president to go a step further by declaring chief MKO Abiola President posthumously. This will show the sincerity his government.
Happy Democracy Day!!!

This is a good step. When Obasanjo was there he did not recognize June12 but south west still hold it sacred. Now a Hausa president gave June 12 what he deserves. June 12 is still the most important day in Nigerian democratic history. Good one from Mr President

And go to hell with your frustration.
I don't like Buhari but this act is commendable and it won't even make me vote for him.
Also, there's nothing like "Yoruba Muslim or Christian.
We Yorubas are not like the frustrated miserable hateful bastards that calls each other OSU-ALUSI, ORU OHU EMU etc
Yorubas are united and we will forever be.
Thanks.

I doubt this news is true.

But if true, Buhari has really gone full scale sentimental and tokenist in a bid to secure his SW votes.

It would be remembered that this was a noble action Obasanjo refused to do.

Obasanjo would be shedding tears of shame now.

It is good that a day the SW governors had legally declared special since 1999, has now been accepted by the federal government as a national holiday for the national mandate to rule that Abiola received by democratic votes, and for the national struggle that was precipitated by that irresponsible annulment.

Shame to IBB.

The best thing to do now is for an Igbo state or Igbo-inclined state to declare May 30 a public holiday in remembrance of Igbos and other tribes massacred in 1967. Also, Middlebelt should declare theirs too remember the several murders of their kins. Furthermore, there should be Chibok&Dapchi day, Bokoharam day.
