Whoever leads only as president, however brilliant and blessed, but for all citizens.
The president of Kind, Hafsat Abiola, and Okei -odumakin of women arise, gave position in a joint statement, whose copy was made available to journalists on Sunday, in memory of the late business magnate and winner of the annulled elections, who said “came like a dream and lived as a legend.”
The groups, in a statement entitled: “MKO: 27 years later,” described the deceased Abiola as an achievement man, a wonder, being a child born in poverty but surrounded by such a wealth of culture and community that, from an early age, made him understand “that the greatest glory came to serve people.”
The groups, although firmly recognize the belief of the late MKO in Nigeria and in the Nigerians and in their love for both of them, said that their adult life, marked by business feats and personal success, was matched by its prodigious philanthropy.
They, however, sadly observed that if there was a final proof that a man like him caused, that it seemed to be an unstoppable force of nature to stumble, it was his search to ensure that the Nigerians said to poverty with poverty as represented in his slogan, while advised his campaign throughout the country to become the president of Nigeria to take the then president of his eliny of Nigeria. Voting exercise.
“If there were a final test that caused a man who seemed to be an unstoppable force of nature to stumble, it was the search to make sure that Nigerians said goodbye to poverty.
“He appeared in his attempt, but, unfortunately, he was not successful. However, that his final chapter culminated in the search for a better Nigeria for all probably defined it better. Mko believed in Nigeria and in the Nigerians and loved them both above all others,” said the rights groups.
However, they postulated that as divided as the country can be today, caused by suspicion and fear and as discouraged as many citizens could feel when they face the lack of visible progress in insecurity and the broader prosperity, the Nigerians would do well, in this 27th anniversary of Mko, “to remember that the unit of a unit can be a priority to a victory for the fight for the fight for the fight.”
“And the search to end poverty in Nigeria is not for a man, either Mko or who takes our country, however brilliant and blessed, but for all of us,” the statement concluded.
