Late MKO Abiola's family want him declared ex president of Nigeria

The family of late MKO Abiola and some South West Governors yesterday appealed to the Federal Government to officially declare the late businessman and politician, a former president of Nigeria.

The family said recognizing him as an ex president is the best way to immortalize the acclaimed winner of the annulled June 12, 1993 presidential election, because according to them, 'Abiola offered himself as the sacrificial lamb for democracy to take roots in Nigeria'.

How can they declare him ex-president when he never was? The family is asking for too much! Readers what do you think?
