On June 12, 1993, Bashorun MKO Abiola reaped the goodness he sowed. He won the Northern Votes and he won the Southern Votes. #June12

#June12 is the real #DemocracyDay
May 29 was a weak attempt by Obasanjo to erase the memory of #June12
It won't ultimately work

The celebration that was cut short
I remember this day 24 years ago. We started celebrating Abiola's victory around 2pm
Two hours later, we cut short our celebration#June12

Our prayer
Happy #June12 #DemocracyDay. May the lord never let us see this event ever again in #Nigeria. A free and fair election annulled! #hnnact pic.twitter.com/66s9TS9EHx
