‘Remember Ninoy properly’

The martyrdom of former senator Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino Jr. on August 21, 1983 must be properly commemorated to remind everyone what the country had to go through to regain its freedom, according to a party-list congressman, one of the leaders of the opposition to the Marcos regime.

Buhay party-list Rep. Jose Lito Atienza said in a statement on Thursday that the day Ninoy was killed caused nationwide anger over this “unbelievable murderous act.”
