Late MKO Abiola’s daughter write to President Jonathan

Daughter of  Late Chief MKO Abiola, Hafsat Abiola-Costello in a new article tittled “At Last, Farewell To Poverty” has asked  president Goodluck Jonathan to smoothly hand over the  presidential cap to his opposition, Major General Buhari if he eventually loses in tomorrow’s general elections.

Hafsat wrote,

“President Jonathan. Thank you for your efforts to lead Nigeria. Should the results of the elections not favor you, please be aware that a smooth handover would still secure you a place among the giants of Nigeria. The curses that surround those that stood in the way of the peoples’ mandate on June 12 will never be yours should you lose and yet demonstrate the exemplary leadership that others failed to show then. Do not doubt that your name can yet be written in gold.”..


And publicly endorsing Major General Buhari, she wrote “In the 2015 presidential elections, I endorse General Muhammad Buhari fully and without reservation. In 1993 my father promised Nigerians that if given the presidential mandate, our people would say farewell to poverty. We know that because the elections were annulled, he could not fulfil that promise. Sadly, that promise remains unfulfilled till today. It is my honest conviction based on a disinterested assessment that General Buhari is our best chance of seeing that promise fulfilled.”
