Read Time:41 Second
Former Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Chief Olu Falae, on Thursday, said there was nothing new in former Military President, General Ibrahim Babangida’s recent remarks about the June 12, 1993 presidential election.
Reacting to IBB’s memoir, which confirmed that MKO Abiola won the election, Falae recalled that he was jailed for two years for fighting to uphold Abiola’s mandate.
He said: “We formed NADECO to fight for the fact that Abiola won the election and should be declared president. I was detained for two years for fighting that cause.
We gave the military an ultimatum to hand over Abiola’s mandate, but they started arresting us. I was kept in detention for two years.
What he said is nothing new—we have always known and believed that Abiola won the election.”
