Hafsat Abiola Costello, the daughter of late Moshood Kashimawo Olawale Abiola, whose election in 1993 was annulled by the Military Junta of Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida has come under strong criticism.

The Convener and Director General of Kudirat Initiative For Democracy, KIND, received knocks and jabs following her submission in an interview session. This follows her appointment as the Director General of Governor Yahaya Bello’s presidential ambition. She said her Principal possesses the same qualities like her late Father.

Several Nigerians have described this statement as unpleasant considering the status Abiola attained while he was alive compared to what Yahaya Bello has done in Kogi state.

Several reactions have trailed her submission with former Senator Representing Kaduna Central Senatorial District, Sani Shehu, saying; “The profile of Sister Hafsat in the struggle to sustain the legacies of her father is unquestionable; but comparing Bello to Abiola is oddly unconscionable and Bogus.

Another Twitter user said, “I agree. MKO Abiola the coup financier was a “hero of democracy” the same way Murtala Mohammed the genocidaire was a “founding father.”

For David Hundeyin, he said, “It’s death that has sanitised and deodorised the stench surrounding these execrable men from Nigeria’s past”.

Aminu Ibn Massaga, who was surprised at the statements of Hafsat said, “MKO Abiola’s daughter really said that Yahaya Bello has same qualities with her father? Maybe we should send our gratitude to IBB for annulling that election.

Another Social Media User said the Standards are so low we have people now comparing MKO Abiola with Yahaya Bello. Is Yahaya Bello ready to die for his priniciples – assuming he has any?

For Ayo Sogunro, the campaign marriage between Hafsat Abiola, a Harvard Graduate and Yaya Bello reminds him of the Chude-Debola rebranding for President Muhammadu Buhari.

“Politics is such a beautiful thing because it pays little attention to morals but interests.

Where your heart is, so shall your pocket be also. Hafsat Abiola disrespected the late MKO Abiola by comparing her dad to the Kogi thief!”

Other comments are below;

…must you drag your late dad to your greedy-selfish-poverty-Pocket filled mission???

Hafsat why?

The only place left for Yahaya Bello is prison to answer all the corruption charges.

Seeing Harvard and Cambridge trained children of MKO Abiola and Chief Remi Fani Kayode doing hatchet job for someone like Yahaya Bello will always be awkward to me.

Hafsat Abiola, MKO Abiola’s daughter says she’s leading Yaya Bello’s presidential campaign because Bello shares some similarities with her late father. And to think that some of us have been looking at Bello with ordinary eyes fah. Issorite
