The statement also says the governor will take part in a procession to the residence of the winner of the June 12, 1993 Presidential Election, late Moshood Kashimawo Abiola, to lay a wreath at the grave of the deceased.

The June 12 1993 election is widely regarded as Nigeria’s fairest election with the then Social Democratic Party Candidate, Moshood Kashimawo Olalekan (MKO) Abiola in the lead to become president before it was annulled by the then Head of State, General Babangida.
