Rights activist, Dr Joe Okei-Odumakin, has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to conduct a free, fair and credible elections in Edo and Ondo states as a way to immortalise and honour winner of 1993 presidential poll, late Moshood Kashimawo Olawale Abiola.
She said, “Conducting free, fair and credible elections in Edo and Ondo states like what we had on June 12, will be the best way to entrench democracy and immortalise MKO Abiola. "Also there is no way we can celebrate or mark June 12 and Democracy Day without the posthumous recognition of chief Abiola as a former President of Federal Republic of Nigeria and his portrait to be displayed among past Heads of State.
She explained further that one of the cardinal objectives of the June 12 struggle was a 'farewell to poverty' which was aimed at making Nigerians prosperous and end hunger. "They need to abolish hunger and poverty in our country because these are not the spirit and vision of Abiola 1993 mandate.
