PRESIDENT Bola Tinubu has honoured activist Ken Saro-Wiwa and eight other Ogoni martyrs, saying his government will address the historical grievances.

The administration of a former Head of State late Sani Abacha executed Saro-Wiwa, and other activists in 1995 after they were accused of murder.

Others were Saturday Dobee, Nordu Eawo, Daniel Gbooko, Paul Levera, Felix Nuate, Baribor Bera, Barinem Kiobel, and John Kpuine

But in a Monday statement by Presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga, Tinubu promised to build a united nation.

“The President reaffirmed that his administration will actively address historical grievances and work towards building a united and prosperous nation for future generations. This vision will be realised through constructive engagement and mutual respect,” the statement read.

“We honour their memory by recognising the sacrifices made and pledging to strive for a future characterised by peace, justice, and sustainable development for all communities, particularly those in the Niger Delta,” said President Tinubu.
