Abdul Abiola, late Kudirat Abiola’s son, has asked President Muhammadu Buhari to meet his commitment by bringing those behind his mother’s killing to justice before the expiration of his administration.
Abdul, who made the call on Saturday via his Twitter handle, lamented that those who killed his mother at age 44 had not been brought to book.
He stated that his confidence in Buhari’s resolve to bring them to justice was unwavering.
He wrote that at the early stages of President Buhari’s campaign in 2019, he was unequivocal about doing so.
“At the early stages of your second presidential campaign, I remember the things you said, so I know that you are a man of justice and equity, hence, my confidence in you.
“As this administration comes to an end, I would like to call on President Muhammad Buhari to investigate the murder of my mother Kudirat Abiola.
“Her anniversary comes up in exactly a month from now. The confession of her murderer, Sergeant Rogers, must be investigated.
“The Oputa Panel is on YouTube and the court statements of your Vice-President are available serving as facts.
“Since the Vice-President ceased to be the Attorney-General of Lagos State, the case has suffered a major setback.
“In the Women hall of Fame, Buhari’s government should name her the Martyr of Democracy.”
Kudirat, late Chief MKO Abiola’s wife, was assassinated on June 4, 1996.
