The lawmaker, who is the immediate past Chief Whip of the Assembly, described the day as a reference point in Nigeria’s history for credible elections
“The demonstration of patriotism by Nigerians voters on June 12, 1993 will continue to Inspire generations of compatriots to promote national unity and defend the country’s democracy,” he said.

According to him, “The patriotism demonstrated by Nigerians on June 12, 1993, underscores the destiny of all tribes and religions in the country to live together. It’s was a day we all spoke with one voice irrespective of ethnic background.”
