Shehu YarAdua's cancellation of elections was fair because as Arthur Nzeribe demonstrated false results were being declared for YArdua all over the country.
Nzeribe caught them red handed because before the elections he bought all the voting cards for the East so no voting took place. , yet YArdua Babangida's preferred military candidate was declared winner as happened in the West.
No such event happened for Aare Abiola whose election was declared fairest in the nation's political history.

M.K.O Abiola's emergence as the Social Democratic Party (SDP)Presidential candidate in the June 12th 1993 Presidential election, a prelude to his purported winning of the election was undemocratic and so illegitimate.
One who must go to equity must go with clean hands.
Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu's and Shehu Yar'Adua's emergence as Presidential candidates of the two registered Political Parties(SDP and NRC) was cancelled with military fiat to make way for Abiola and Tofa to emerge.
M.K.O Abiola and Bashir Tofa were close friends of the then military ruler, General Ibrahim Babangida.
