Today has been declared democracy day in honor of June 12 1993, the most credible and freest presidential elections ever conducted in Nigeria. It was elections where Nigerians of all shades of opinions voted freely for late Chief MKO Abiola and Amb Babagana Kingibe under the Social Democratic Party SDP.
As usual Nigerian anti-Democratic forces, the evil minded, the principalities and powers who have held Nigerians and Nigeria in the jugular did not allow that freest choice of Nigerians to stand. The election was nullified by military junta led by General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida. As with everything in Nigeria we play politics with everything including human life.
is impari delicto in this regards. that has constitutional duties and responsibilities to instill political sanity in our otherwise political rascality has been castrated in the performances of statutory and constitutional functions that today democracy exists only in name and not in practice in Nigeria. For me what we have in Nigeria in the name of democracy is just civilian militarized government.
