LAGOS—A National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, yesterday, urged the Senate President, Ahmed Lawan and Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr.  Femi Gbajabiamila and their deputies to see the offices entrusted in them as sacred.

FORMER Lagos State Governor and All  Progressives Congress National Leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, was one of those in the forefront for the actualisation of Abiola’s presidential mandate and was even forced to go on exile while fighting for the cause. And since the return of democratic governance, he has also made a strong case that June 12 be recognised as Nigeria’s Democracy Day instead of May 29.

Twenty years in the life of a nation may be a short period of time. But when such a span of time embodies something meaningful and impactful, it is extremely noteworthy. And so Nigeria at present is celebrating two decades of uninterrupted democracy since the democratic restoration of 1999. Considering where the country is coming from- a long period of coups and counter coups, 30 months civil war, three previous short-lived attempts at democratic rule, military dictatorship of the worst form, occasioning all kinds of experiments and fraudulent political engineering including an annulment of a free and fair election and then a brutal dictatorship during which many were either killed or maimed- having another democratic resurgence lasting 20 years, and still counting, is indeed significant.

Operators on the nation bourse on Friday said that suspension of two directors of Oando Plc from public companies for five years would bring sanity to the capital market.

All Progressives Congress National Leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has described Alhaji Kola Animasaun who died on Thursday in Lagos at 80 as a true icon of journalism.
