Group remembers MKO Abiola 18 years after

Demands for the gazette of June 12 election results as belatedly declared by Humphrey Nwosu.

The Federal Government has been urged to immortalise Chief Moshood Kashimawo Olawale (MKO) Abiola by renaming a key national institution/infrastructure in his name.

The call was made yesterday by the Women Arise for Change Initiative (WA) during the remembrance of the late Abiola who was considered the only truly elected President of Nigeria whose election was adjudged to be free and fair by the entire global community.

The group demanded post-humous recognition of Chief Abiola as President of Nigeria and the display of his portrait among past Nigerian Presidents and Heads of State while a judicial commission of inquiry should also be set up to unravel how the high treason was carried out in custody.

In a statement by the group, President, Women Arise and Centre for Change, Dr. Joe Okei-Odumakin, enjoined Nigerians to continue to demand for the gazette of June 12 election results as belatedly declared by Humphrey Nwosu.
