Eldest son of Prince Abubakar Audu, a former Governor of Kogi state, Mohammed, has revealed that his father died of ulcer
and not spiritual attack.
The candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2015 governorship election in Kogi state died on 22 November,
2015, just after the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared the election inconclusive.
Speaking with The Sun, Mohammed said, ”We didn’t grow up to believe in any spiritual attack. More so, I know that he died of bleeding peptic ulcer. I knew he was under pressure, I knew a lot of things went
wrong at the time, but then, as for the election, he was coasting home to victory.
”Not that he was going to win; he had won. It was just for the miscalculation of INEC that made them to say it was inconclusive.
But in my opinion, he had won fair and square.”
Also speaking on how his family has been coping since his father died, Mohammed said the family was doing good.
”You know when the head of the family goes like this, the process of recovery and trying to step into his shoes is not exactly
very easy.
”So, we are all pulling together, trying our best to see how we can come out of the shock and continue with his legacy,” he
said.
