President Bola Tinubu has showered encomiums on the late MKO Abiola, saying that his legacy lives on.
Abiola, the acclaimed winner of the 1993 presidential election, died in military detention on July 7, 1998.
Marking the 25th anniversary of his death on Friday, Tinubu described the late Abiola as a “champion of democracy”.
“Today, our nation honours the sacrifice and example of a true hero, Chief Moshood Kashimawo Olawale (MKO) Abiola, 25 years after his sad demise,” he said.
“A true champion of democracy, his courage and integrity, complete dedication to public service, exemplified the highest ideals of our great nation.
“His legacy endures and his message of hope echoes still. May Allah SWT grant him mercy and increase his rewards.”
The June 12, 1993, presidential election was annulled by Ibrahim Babangida, a former military head of state.
