Ogundokun praises Buhari’s resolve to unveil those behind Ige, Dokubo’s murder

by Our Reporter

.A political stalwart and elder statesman, Chief Abiola Ogundokun, has
praised President Mohammadu Buhari’s resolve to unveil those behind the
assasination of the former Minister of Justice and Attorney-General of the
Federation, Chief Ajibola Ige, and the late Peoples Democratic Party,
Deputy National Chairman, Chief Aminosari Dokubo.

In a statement by him, Ogundokun said Buhari was on the right track with
the order he gave the acting Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Ibrahim
Idris, to re-open the files on the two high profile cases.

According to him, the order by Mr. President, no doubt, would send the
signal to criminally-minded Nigerians that no one was above the law and
that justice would not again elude the families of the victims.

However, he charged President Buhari to ensure that other high profile
murder cases, including the assassination of the late Lagos State PDP
leader, Funsho Williams, be given equal attention to make his good
intention be acceptable by all Nigerians.

He said: “It is very unacceptable for the evil to continue to thrive and
the aggreived and the bereaved not to get justice. The perpetrators and
sponsors of these grusome murder cases, no doubt, are moving freely about
unchallenged and this is enough reason for many to lose faith in the
nation’s judicial system.

“Mr. President’s resolve to unearth the mystery of these cases would go a
long way to restore our confidence thatthe nation belongs to all of us and
not the few that belive they can commit crimes and get away unpunished. I
beileve evidences are still fresh to prosecute these cases and bring the
perpetrators of the heineous acts to justice.”

The Publisher of the Conscience Magazine International and National
Publicity Secretary of the defunct National Party of Nigeria, noted that
re-opening the Ige and Dokubo’s murder cases must have brought a relief to
the the two great politicians’ families that hope was in sight for them to
get justice for their loved ones.
The Iwo-born politician, therefore, rallied support of Nigerians for the
anti-corruption fight of the Buhari administration and effort to revamp
the ailing national economy, adding that creating “a plartform for social
justice is a worthy legacy any  government can leave behind after its
tenure.”
