The Constitutional lawyer said Military dictatorship has never and will never give African society a benevolent government saying what we need to insist upon is a democracy that works for the peoples of Africa comfortably in keeping with African tradition.
“A dictator is an opportunist compared to nothing but a ruffian. He hates truth and knows no right from wrong, he respects no man, regards no community, he confounds the mind, debases and degenerates the intellect. More fatal is that he trusts nobody,” Abayomi said.
