Protesters yesterday staged a rally in Lagos to mark the 19th anniversary of June 12, 1993 annulled election.
They said though the late Chief MKO Abiola was killed while trying to retrieve his mandate, his spirit lives on.
The June 12 Coalition for Democratic Formations (June 12 CODEF) and other democracy-advocacy groups organised the march.
The procession, made up of mainly activists, youngsters, the common folk and a sizeable number of the downtrodden, commenced from Allen Roundabout, Ikeja, to the late Chief MKO Abiola’s house, where prayers were said at his grave for the repose of his soul.
During the merely they sang and from gave passers-by handbills.
