Activists, others lampoon Babangida, demand ex-dictator’s prosecution.

Recent revelations by former Nigerian military leader Ibrahim Babangida have reignited public discourse and calls for accountability regarding the annulment of the June 12, 1993, presidential election. In his newly released memoir, Babangida asserts that forces led by General Sani Abacha annulled the election without his direct authorization. This claim has prompted strong reactions from activists and public figures.

Human rights activist and #RevolutionNow convener, Omoyele Sowore, has been particularly vocal, demanding the prosecution and imprisonment of Babangida and other former leaders, including Olusegun Obasanjo and Abdulsalami Abubakar, for their alleged roles in undermining Nigeria’s democratic processes. Sowore emphasizes the need for justice concerning the annulment of the June 12 election, which was widely regarded as free and fair.

Media personality Morayo Afolabi-Brown has also called for Babangida’s prosecution, highlighting the personal and national trauma resulting from the annulment. She underscores the profound impact of the crisis on numerous families and the nation’s democratic trajectory.

Babangida’s memoir has further intensified the debate by suggesting that the annulment was executed by Abacha-led forces without his consent. This assertion has led to questions about the entitlements and recognition due to the late Chief Moshood Kashimawo Olawale (MKO) Abiola, the presumed winner of the annulled election, and his running mate, Baba Gana Kingibe. Discussions are emerging on whether their families should receive presidential benefits posthumously.

The renewed scrutiny of Babangida’s role in the June 12 annulment reflects a broader demand for historical accountability and justice in Nigeria’s political landscape.
