President Buhari has decided to announce 12TH OF JUNE as the new democracy day for Nigerians from the usual 29TH OF MAY as announced during President Olusegun Obasanjo regime. This is to honour the late Chief M.K.O Abiola and he is also given the national award of GCFR.
The “JUNE 12” as preferred call, has ever been a remembered day among the western people of Nigerians, and they recognize it as a special to them. Some will even place leaf on their vehicles, and in Osun state with the present regime of Governor Aregbesola, JUNE 12 is celebrated as democracy day.
