Former governor of Kogi State, Prince Abubakar Audu passed away suddenly Sunday, November 22, 2015 of a heart attack. This sad incident happened shortly after the
results of the November 21 governorship elections for which he was the candidate for All Progressives Congress (APC) was declared inconclusive, with Audu in the lead.
The news of Audu’s death was first reported by citizen reporters website, Sahara Reporters.

New information is revealing that Audu’s family members suspect foul play in the death of the former two-time governor who was seeking a return to the government house of Kogi.

According to close family sources, who spoke with The Trent on condition of anonymity, Audu complained of stomach cramps before going to bed on Saturday night. He suffered a stroke on Sunday morning at about 9am.

“My uncle was poisoned, he was poisoned,” the source told our reporter in between tears. “He shared a meal with a top APC chieftain from the South West (name withheld) a few days ago. Since then, he has not been himself. His death is planned. It is all about usurping his position.”

According to a source inside the Audu Campaign Organisation, Audu suffered another stroke, shortly after the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared the result of the election inconclusive. Our source, who didn’t wish to be named, said that Audu died of a massive heart attack soon after.

Audu who was 68 years at the time of his death was governor of Kogi twice, January 1992 to November 1993 and May 1999 to May 2003.

He is survived by wives and children.
He is scheduled to be buried according to Islamic rites at 10am on Monday.

ahhh... will APC now call PDP assassins? I think an autopsy should be carried out on the body. They should ignore the Islamic rights in order to determine the cause of his death.

This one na serious allegation oh! shocked

If they sue you for libel now, you will be crying about how poor you are. But when time reach to talk nonsense, na you get mouth pass. If the family suspected anything, they won't be burying him quickly. He was a sick man and had no business contesting. Oponu OP with your hungry blog

He was poisoned by who and what evidence does the said man have. The best the family can do is to allow autopsy to be done. Why must he share a meal with end time homo sapiens, was he a learner? Some scripts were written long time ago & must be acted..Shikena

An autopsy is in order in this particular incident notwithstanding the Islamic rites.

If the grand leader of Palestine, Arafat was exhumed after many years he was buried to allow for autopsy then definitely Islamic tradition will support an autopsy on Abubakar Audu.

His death can't just be wished away in this circumstance.

This is just a worthless propaganda from a PDP sponsored online outfit. Who stands to gain more if Audu did not survive the elections? APC or PDP the projected loser? As it is now, Audu's death is more of a blessing to PDP and a loss to APC. Even if we subscribe to this jaundiced allegation that he was poisoned, wouldn't the so called APC leader have waited till after the swearing in to do such an attrotious act to easily pave way for the deputy governor? I forgot that trentonline bloggers don't have brains
