Peter Obi has declared late Gen Sani Abacha, who was head of state from 1993 to 1998, as more democratic than those who claimed to have fought for democracy, especially through the National Democratic Coalition, NADECO.
The 2023 Labour Party, LP, presidential candidate, and chieftain of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, said this in a post on his X (Twitter) handle.
His declaration is coming on the heels of recent development within the party, especially with court decisions and Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC’s reactions.
According to Peter Obi, “Yesterday defenders of democracy, today’s destroyers. What a shame.
“What an irony of history, that the acclaimed defenders of democracy and human rights, who claimed to have fought for democracy during the era of General Sani Abacha, now find themselves worse than the man they opposed.
“Today, General Sani Abacha, once presumed face of oppression, will be remembered as seemingly more democratic and more respectful of human rights than the so-called champions of activism from the NADECO days.
