The text describes the assassination of Kudirat Abiola, a prominent Nigerian opposition figure, who was shot dead by unknown assailants in Lagos on June 4, 1996. The Nigerian Democratic Coalition (NADECO) has called for a three-day mourning period to honor Kudirat's memory and has urged Nigerians to shut down for half a day to show respect. NADECO also wants workers, civil rights groups, students, labor unions, and shop owners to take suitable action to show solidarity on the same day. The eighth-day ceremony to mark Kudirat's death has been shifted to June 11 to avoid the possibility of violence coinciding with the third anniversary of the annulled June 12, 1993 election.
