Tinubu Honors Pro-Democracy Activist Ralph Obioha

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu extended condolences to the family of Chief Ralph Obioha, who passed away at the age of 80. Chief Obioha was a notable member of the National Democratic Coalition (NADECO) and played a crucial role in the pro-democracy movement, advocating for the restoration of the June 12, 1993 mandate won by late Bashorun Moshood Kashimawo Abiola.

In a statement signed by Bayo Onanuga, Tinubu described Obioha as a courageous Nigerian who made significant sacrifices for democracy. He highlighted Obioha's steadfast belief in democracy, justice, and the constitutional rights of Nigerians to choose their leaders, despite the personal costs he faced during military rule.

Tinubu emphasized the importance of remembering patriots like Obioha, whose contributions during challenging times are vital to Nigeria's history. He offered prayers for Obioha's family and called for remembrance of his courage and commitment to a better Nigeria.
