Tinubu and First Lady Attend MKO Documentary Premiere

Tinubu and First Lady Attend MKO Documentary Premiere

On October 1, President Bola Tinubu and First Lady Oluremi Tinubu attended the national premiere of "MKO," a documentary focused on the life and political legacy of Chief Moshood Kashimawo Olawale Abiola, at the Wole Soyinka Centre for Culture and Creative Arts in Iganmu, Lagos. The event coincided with Nigeria's 66th Independence Day.

A video shared by Dada Olusegun, the President's Special Assistant on Social Media, captured their arrival as a band played the national anthem, with guests standing in respect. The documentary, directed by Ose Oyamendan, revisits Abiola's life, political career, and his significant role in the struggle following the annulment of the June 12, 1993 presidential election. "MKO" had previously been screened internationally at the Sheffield DocFest in the United Kingdom before its Nigerian premiere.
