Abiola family urges Nigeria to mark June 12 as Democracy Day to honor annulled 1993 election.
The Abiola family has called on the Nigerian government to institutionalize June 12 as Democracy Day, commemorating the annulled 1993 election where MKO Abiola was declared the winner.
The election, considered the freest and fairest in Nigeria's history, was annulled by the military regime, leading to civil unrest and Abiola’s detention until his death in 1998.
Despite progress with four peaceful transitions since 1999, Nigeria still faces challenges such as corruption and economic difficulties, making the day a symbol of the country's ongoing democratic struggle.
