Similarities between MKO Abiola and Tinubu: The official spokesperson for the All Progressives Congress (APC) 2023 Presidential Campaign Council (PCC), Festus Keyamo (SAN), on Friday compared the presidential candidate of the party, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to the late philanthropist and winner of the 1993 presidential election, Chief Moshood Kashimawo Olawale (MKO) Abiola.
Bellnewsonline.com reports that the late MKO Abiola whose travails formed the foundation of a new Democracy Day in Nigeria was deemed a repository of knowledge who laced his statements with African wisdom.
Keyamo, also the Minister of State for Labour and Employment, made a comparison between the late politician and his principal.
With the events of the last few days when some buffoons tried to ridicule the parables of @officialABAT & ended up like jokes themselves, it appears @officialABAT has resurrected the effective style of MKO Abiola who regaled us with African proverbs on his campaign trail in 1993.
