Former Amuwo Odofin Local Government Chairman, Comrade Ayodele Adewale, has called on the Federal Government to return all Abiola’s businesses and pay compensation to his family.  

According to him, Abiola’s businesses were deliberately collapsed by Nigerian state during the military administration, and a lot of his workers were thrown into turmoil.

He stated this during this year’s Democracy Day celebration.

He called for setting up of a committee that would go to the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and bring all Abiola’s accounts, and reparation be paid in the value of what it should be, and all his businesses be released to the family and due compensation be paid to them.
