Hafsat Abiola-Costello

Hafsat Abiola Costello has reacted to a piece trending online that was purportedly written by her. The article, titled “Hafsat Abiola-Castelo (sic) response to critics” or “Hafsat Abiola Goes Ballistic”.

She expressed her deepest appreciation to President Muhammadu Buhari for the validation of June 12 and the conferment of Nigeria’s highest honour her father, Bashorun MKO Abiola and the second highest honour on his running mate, Ambassador Baba Gana Kingibe, and the people’s defender, Barrister Gani Fawehinmi. She added that the shift in the allocation of resources by the Muhammadu Buhari administration is better for the diversification of our economy and for economic development.

Hafsat Abiola continued: “However, it is not my way to attack anyone who is opposed to the current administration, which this falsely attributed article does. I respect the right that each individual has to form his/her political opinion too much to do that.

“My prayer is that we do that which is best for our country in the coming election. May we have the wisdom to discern the sincere from the insincere; the committed from the unreliable; the doer from those who may say what we want to hear but lack the courage to act in our collective interests.

“My thanks to those who brought the false statement to my attention.”
