President Bola Tinubu has honoured Colonel Abubakar Dangiwa Umar(Rtd), a June 12 campaigner with the national honour of Commander of the Order of the Federal Republic (CFR).
President Tinubu announced the honour today in an address at the commissioning of a 300-bed hospital and vocational training institute in Kaduna.
Abubakar Umar was known as the soldier of democracy. But his name was missing among the June 12 honorees announced on Democracy Day.
President Tinubu apologised for the omission.
