Abdulmumuni Abiola, a son of the acclaimed of the 1993 presidential election, Chief MKO Abiola has declared that his father was betrayed by his own kinsmen.

Abdulmumuni said Abiola’s kinsmen literally killed his and shared his meat. Abiola is a native of Ogun State, south west Nigeria.

Speaking with Punch, Abdulmumuni said the family was not interested in the clamour in some quarters that the late business mogul should be posthumously conferred with the title of the former president.

He said the title was of no use to the family and would not in any way bring back the late politician.

Abdulmumuni said, “Can you imagine? My father died in 1998 and we’re still discussing his death as if he died recently.

“I feel there was something my father was trying to do and the powers that be then didn’t want him to do that. What could that possibly be? What did MKO do to deserve that death? We want to know.”

He wondered why some people decided to kill his father who was only trying to make the country better.

“These were people from his own ethnic group; they cut him (Abiola) into pieces and shared his ‘meat’.

“The decision (to kill him) that they made back then, are they enjoying it now? We can’t go back in time but going into the future we can avoid making the same old mistake, which is the most important thing”, he said.

Asked if he was in support of the call that the late Abiola should be conferred with the title of ex-president in his grave, the son said the country had other better things to attend to than giving title to a man who was no longer alive.

His words, “That might just be a symbolic measure actually; my father has been long dead. What’s the point of giving him back his mandate when he’s no longer alive to accept it? They should keep the mandate.

“The country has more pressing issues to deal with. The country will be a better place if our leaders can apply their heads as well as hearts to lifting the majority of the people out of poverty, injustice, hopelessness, insecurity and corruption. There is so much rot in the country.”

And innermost roads doesn't deserve drainage and sidewalk for people to walk on?



Below is Ijede in Lagos state, it's not even a local government.

You people are quick to badmouth other people, but you make silly excuses for your own dirty and substandard rubbish.

While you are leaking Wike's butt?

We all know you, your grouse against Ameachi is that he led the revolution that truncated the looting administration of your buffoon hero.

Toketimt:

Write a petition to Wike to pay up. govt is a continuum and Amaechi currently has nothing to do with debacle. Amaechi isn't owning u, Wike is the one owning.
Again I say, state govts aren't bound to pay anything. Am sure u were told this during ur one month orientation.

Toketimt:

Go ask current corpers if they are being paid. State government aren't mandated to pay corpers.

He wants front page. He want to let his pay masters know he's doing his job.

I tell you, for Tonyebarcanista to call Lokoja a glorified village shows he hasn't set foot outside of his hotel room or wherever he's staying at the moment.

The question is what is fact?
What does the word mean?
What does it mean to be a scientist?
What does it mean to carry out scientific procedures?
How are scientific procedures followed?

Do you just need to wear a labcoat to be called a scientist?
Present your facts.
My eyes need to be satisfied before my mind.
If that's not your way, then I am afraid its not empirical research.
Think about it, did you know that all your theories on the globe earth cannot be proven with practical science?
That's why you rely on computer generated images to tell you what to believe.
You honestly believe a telescope which is 365,000,000 miles away is snapping selfies of Jupiter and sending it back to you?
Which camera is snapping he telescope as it is around Jupiter?

And you call yourself a scientist?
