“The president should complete the task he started by investigating the situation that led to the annulment of June 12, those responsible for the annulment and punish them effectively, so it will not happen again.

“If president Muhammadu Buhari does not go further and do this, anybody can do the same thing like Babangida who annulled June 12 and got away with it; up till now. We must make sure that does not happen again,” he said.
