Echoes of June 12 Democracy Day

Chiemelie Ezeobi, Mary Nnah, Yinka Olatunbosun, Rebecca Ejifoma, Sunday Ehigiator, Ayodeji Ake, Chiamaka Ozulumba and Oluwabunmi Fache, who monitored the commemoration of the Democracy Day on June 12 and the protests, report the peculiarities of each state including the Federal Capital Territory Annually, June 12 represents a huge significance for Nigeria and indeed Nigerians because on that day in 1993, a presidential election was held for the first time since the 1983 military coup and was the freest, fairest, and most peaceful election ever held in Nigeria before it was annulled by the then General Ibrahim Babangida regime. On that day, Nigerians shed the toga of ethnicity, class and religious barriers to elect their president after Babangida took over from Muhammadu Buhari in a bloodless coup in 1985. Hence, the annulment of that election significantly altered the history of Nigeria 28 years on.
