... of Abiola, Moshood Abiola.

Uh, if they were able to rise from that and talk to one another, why can't we talk to one another? The time to talk to one another is now.

So it's an illegal inauguration.

It reminds me of the 1993 case of Chief Moshood Kashmaw Olawale Abiola in June 1993.

This is the first time after military takeovers in Nigeria that we're having the first credible civilian elections.

And the elections were held by international community donors, cooperating partners, observers, and local people, that it was the fairest and freest election.

And Abiola broke record.

He was a Muslim.

you know, with a running mate who's a Muslim, but he swept the Nigerian election.

He got support even from areas, you know, the divisions in Nigeria, the Muslim and Christian and the tribal division.
