Ondo state Governor has honoured late MKO Abiola by
renaming Democracy Park,Akure as MKO Abiola Democracy Park,
Akure.Speaking during ONDOSTATEJUNE12LECTURES,in part he said
"June 12 gave birth to Democracy in Nigeria "
"I have the uncommon honour, as the Governor of Ondo State, to announce the renaming of our Democracy Park in Akure as MKO Abiola Democracy Park, Akure. This is the least we can do to immortalize a man whose sacrifice bequeathed the current democratic order to us"
"This event stands the risk of being tagged with an ostensible political coloration but deep understanding of the phenomenal essence of the June 12, 1993 presidential election as watershed in the history of the country, readily reveals, to those who reason deeply, the logic propelling seemingly endless celebration. We will not stop to flaunt these heroes and heroines of the struggle for the redefinition of the polity, especially now that some confused elements are heating up the polity to achieve parochial designs "
