It is no longer news that the notorious
Major Al Mustapha, the former Chief Security
Officer, CSO, to the Late dictator General Sani
Abacha drove me into exile in the USA. What
is news happened late last week when a
Federal appeal court in Lagos, Nigeria freed
Al Mustapha of all counts of Capital Murder
of Kudirat Abiola, the wife of the late Chief
MKO Abiola, whose annulled June 12 1993
election victory plunged Nigeria into
political anarchy; which almost led to the
break-up of the Country. During the reign of
Abacha, Al Mustapha terrorized the country
to no end. Even then, serving generals were
afraid of him. Now a feckless appeal court
and a bungling prosecuting team have
freed this murderer, who wanted to kill me
and hang my hide in ASO Rock for dart
games is now breathing the air of freedom
made possible by democracy, which he so
persecuted us for because he wanted
Abacha and the Military to rule forever.


Suspicion has arisen that this judgment
which freed Al Mustapha may not stand the
smell test. Consider what has happened
since his freedom. The Military authorities in
Nigeria have made it known that Al-
Mustapha is still in the army and will soon
be decorated with a new rank of Brigadier-
General presumably the rank of his mates
(since denied by the military). It cannot be
said that the Military authorities will
gleefully announce that a disgraced and
fallen murderer would be promoted without
ASO Rock having no inkling of the
development. A man who pursued me in
Abuja in 1994 to 1995 with Vengeance
detaining me in Alagbon, (Lagos), Wuse, Kuje
(Abuja), detention Centers and finally
sending a 20-man Killer squad made up of
soldiers, State security services , SSS,
operatives and Policemen to arrest me and
finish me off is now allegedly to be
promoted to a two –star general for all the
atrocities that he committed with his Boss,

Abacha. Could this be a desperate political
play by President Goodluck Jonathan’s 2015
calculations?


What do we tell the family of Bagauda
James Kaltho, a Journalist Colleague of Mine
at the Abuja Bureau of THE NEWS / TEMPO/
PM / News, who succeeded me as bureau
chief after I fled to the USA, who was
eventually murdered by the goons of Al
Mustapha and his body dumped at the
Durbar Hotel, Kaduna and destroying his
name by blood-labeling him as a bomber?. I
cannot believe that a civilian government
will attempt to use a serial killer like Al
Mustapha for any useful purpose in a
democracy, which the Yobe-born Major
fought so hard to abort. A military major
who, on account of his activities, dislocated
my life and that of my family and barely
escaped his killers by the grace of God. We
wait to see what the powers that be in
Abuja are planning with the schemed
release and probable elevation of Al
Mustapha.


Since President Jonathan does not know
history of those who fought for the
democracy that he is enjoying now, I call on
him to promote Al Mustapha to a four Star
general and make him his chief of Army
Staff so that he can make history to repeat
itself.


A writer wrote that those who fail to learn
from history are doomed to repeat it.
I hope Jonah is listening. Any role for Al-
Mustapha so soon after his technical
acquittal of murder of numerous Nigerians
whom he killed in cold blood would make
the Nigerian President an accomplice of
Abacha and Al Mustapha, to be spitting on
the graves of the heroic Nigerian fighters
for democracy, many of whom lost their
lives, and many scattered in exile un-
rehabilitated.


Al Mustafa’s quick rehabilitation in the book
of President Jonathan taught me two
lessons: this kind of swift rehabilitation of
murderers and criminals is the reason why
not many are willing to die for Nigeria and
which is why Nigeria under President
Goodluck Jonathan has become one of open
sesame of Looting, Kidnapping, and abuse
of Presidential Power.


The Ingrates who inherited power have
forgotten the blood and the suffering of the
patriots who fought Abacha to a stand still
to smoothen their way to Aso Rock and are
now behaving like drunks who do not
know how democracy came to the country.
At the appropriate time we will tell them.
