‘Abiola did not become president.

His loss has become his greatest gain. He made June 12 possible. He made power shift possible. Few men have gained so much from their losses.

The real loser in the June 12 debacle was Babangida. His sabotage of June 12 made June 12 possible. He lost the right to claim it as the triumph of political engineering. It was not part of his political calculation. It was a triumph of the accident of politics.’ – Dan Agbese
