Alhaja Amina Irawo made the demand on behalf of the family at the commemoration of the 2023 Nigeria’s Democracy Day celebration, held at the late Abiola’s residence at Ikeja, Lagos on Monday.
It will be recalled that the former military head of state annulled the poll acclaimed to have been won by the late MKO Abiola.
According to her, “we want IBB to apologise and announce the late Abiola as winner of of the 1993 presidential election.”
“President Bola Tinubu should declare the late Chief MKO Abiola winner and announce him president-elect of the June 12 presidential election.
“We urge the president to also give the family all late M.K.O Abiola’s entitlements from June 12, 1993 till date.
“Tinubu should honour one of late Abiola’s wives, Alhaja Kudirat Abiola, who died for the struggle for democracy.
“He should honour her as first lady of “Hope 93″ and give her children all the entitlements due to her.”
Irawo, who is also a human rights activist and Founder of House of Politics, urged the Sanwo-Olu administration to give the late MKO Abiola’s house in Lagos a befitting face lift due to a president.
Reacting, Sanwo-Olu who was represented by his deputy, Dr Obafemi Hamzat, pledged that the house would be taken care of.
The governor urged all to continue to pray that God protected and sustained the family while he enjoined the people to come together to build a nation that all would be proud of.
