Solozzo:

It would be superfluous to expect mustapha's video to show these leaders collecting Money live. They probably have collected the money before meeting AbubakAr and the press, to soften their minds. Nairalanders be smart and apply your intellect. The murderer of Abiola was also in the video!!!

Beaf:

It is certain from the way he is behaving that anything he has to release would implicate him as well. Thats my reading.
Since he has little to lose, he is now playing a game of dare. So, he drops the names of a couple of dead guys and a General who is in poor health, he mentions he gave an increminating tape (which he possibly has copies of) to Obj. Then he namedrops Ribadu who is in Afghanistan. The only really serious name thats present in the country is Mike Okiro.
Al Mustapha might have enough to blackmail several people with in the hope that they will "negotiate" and pull strings, but because of the high stakes, he is likely to have to risk all (both his freedom and his life).

The letter which was read in open court, stated that after Abiola was confirmed dead, Ige was counseled to bring all other South-West leaders under the guise of dousing tension.“All these actions were deliberate. You were only used unconsciously to ensure that Abiola’s death was covered up. They succeeded in stopping all Yoruba leaders and Abiola’s family from suing by paying them off with huge sums of money withdrawn from the Central Bank,” he said in the letter.

nagoma:

Just because it was not on the film dosnt mean they didn't take the money. Why did he not accuse Ijaw leaders or Idoma leaders. There is more than meets the eye in this saga.

Al-Mustapha suffering from hallucination – Falana
By Kunle Falayi
Friday, 5 Aug 2011



Lagos lawyer, Mr. Femi Falana, has described the allegations by the ex-Chief Security Officer of the late General Sani Abacha, Major Hamzat Al-Mustapha as induced by “prolonged detention hallucination.”


Falana told our correspondent during a telephone interview on Thursday that Al-Mustapha only wanted to curry the sympathy of the public.


He said, “His allegations are diversionary and designed to whip up unnecessary sentiment and make the public lose sight of the gruesome murder of Mrs. Kudirat Abiola, which is the subject of this trial.


“I represented the Abiola family at the Oputa Commission of Enquiry. On the many occasions he gave evidence on the illegal killing of General Sani Abacha and Chief M.K.O. Abiola, he never linked the late Chief Bola Ige and Pa. Abraham Adesanya to the killing and neither did he accuse them of connivance.”


The lawyer said Al-Mustapha should have made his allegation when Ige and Adesanya were both still alive.


Falana said, “A Yoruba adage says it is a liar who says his witness is in heaven. following the cold murder of Mrs Kudirat Abiola on June 4, 1996, Pa Adesanya, Chief Ayo Adebanjo, Pa Ore Onasanya and Chief Ige were arrested by Al-Mustapha and detained on the allegation that they conspired to kill the lady.


“When those allegations collapsed, Kola Abiola was arrested under the guise that Kudirat was killed as a result of a family feud. Miss Hafsat Abiola had to come out to say her brother could not have killed her mother.”


He also made a reference to the brutal murder of Pa. Alfred Rewane in his house at GRA Ikeja, Lagos.


Falana said, “The armed goons who perpetrated those dastardly act had given evidence in court where they admitted before the Oputa Commission of Enquiry that they were agents of Al-Mustapha.


“The ongoing trial pertains specifically to the cold murder of Kudirat. All efforts to implicate the victims of the massive repression of that time are dubiously designed by a man who is suffering from prolonged detention hallucination to divert the course of justice.


“The fact that the Adesanya and Ige met with Gen. Abdusalam Abubakar was in the public domain. Let him show the footage of when he claimed money exchanged hands between the deceased and Abubakar.”


According to the human rights activist, M.K.O Abiola was detained in dehumanising conditions for four years in a custody supervised by Al-Mustapha. He said even Archbishop Desmond Tutu of South Africa lamented the terrible state in which he found Abiola when he visited Nigeria.


He said, “I was allowed to see him. He told the world he met an Abiola whose health was greatly impaired and could die anytime. At that time, he had fallen down in the bathroom and had a broken ankle. He was in excruciating pain as he was denied medical attention, which he offered to pay for himself.”


“On one occasion, Abiola’s personal physician, Dr. Ore Falomo, offered to see him on passionate grounds. Al-Mustapha ordered the doctor’s detention at the Kaduna Prisons.


“The evidence presented at the Oputa Commission of Enquiry was that the remote cause of Abiola’s death was the criminal denial of medical attention while the immediate cause was the mysterious tea that terminated his life. Our evidence was backed by scientific proof. We established a strong case to prove Abiola was murdered by the Nigerian state

lagcity:

and just because the ppl met with Abubakar does not mean they took the money. why would he accuse Ijaw leaders when we all know that Abiola was Yoruba and that Yoruba leaders were the ones spearheading the fight for Abiola's mandate?

seanet02:

Egbon e disappoint me lana, sugbon mi o fe bayin ja tori mo mo wipe eniyan dada niyin.
E kan sare soro so oro buruku si awon baba wa lana bayen eti e je ki mustapha gbe aworan iro e sita no.

strangest:

If he has the video of the yorouba chiefs leaving the meeting which is the part 2, then there is still every possibility that he has the part 1(showing the meeting).,. Reason why he may still be holding unto the part 1 is probably not to lose his bargaining powers.
