House of Representatives
The house of representatives has endorsed June 12 as the date of
celebrating Democracy Day.
The lawmakers gave the endorsement on Thursday following the
consideration of a bill seeking to amend the public holidays
act.
The amendment was necessitated after President Muhammadu Buhari
declared June 12 as the new date for Democracy Day to honour
Moshood Abiola, presumed winner of the 1993 presidential
election.
