June 12: ‘It’s time to divide Nigeria’ – Pastor Giwa tells Buhari govt
Giwa, in his message in commemoration of this year’s Democracy Day, a copy of which was made available to DAILY POST on Thursday, said the past and current politicians had failed to learn from what transpired on June 12, 1993 election.
According to him, politicians have continued to rob Nigerians through their collective votes and resources.“The few politicians who robbed us in 1993 election are still holding the keys to Nigeria’s future.“As the saying goes in Yoruba,’ BI igi ba wo lugi ti ori re law kogbe, meaning’ If a tree falls on a tree, you will remove the one from the top.’
“Some few politicians behind the annulment of June 12 are still well alive, and they must go on compulsory retirement before we can get things done properly. “Our electoral system has not changed since 1993. Politicians still rig, kill and take over power by force in Nigeria. “No doubt, June 12 presidential election will remain in our hearts; it can never be eroded in the nation’s history.
