The Federal House of Representatives at the
National Assembly in Abuja is currently in a
rowdy session over the recently declared
Democracy Day.
President Muhammadu Buhari’s decision to declare June 12 as
Nigeria’s Democracy Day in honour of late M.K.O Abiola, has
caused a rowdy session at the House of Representatives, Abuja.
It was gathered that while some lawmakers supported it, others
asked the President to rescind his decision.
Some of the lawmakers also kicked against the honour given to
Abiola, the presumed winner of the June 12,1993 presidential
election.

Some lawmakers who also spoke on the issue said there is need
to ensure the rule of law is followed regarding the matter, while
others spoke in favour of the president’s decision.
