“Let me also pay tribute to Chief MKO Abiola GCFR for his democratic sacrifice which we are celebrating. This is a clear confirmation that his sacrifice is not in vain.

“His spirits of selflessness, patriotism, and unity are worthy of emulation by all democratic leaders nationally and globally.

 “I, therefore, call on the United Nations (UN) to declare 12 June every year as World Democracy Day.

 “It is an honour well deserved by Chief MKO Abiola of blessed memory and all lovers of democracy by the international community,” the former COAS stated.
