Mohammed Audu, the eldest son of a former Governor of Kogi State and All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate in the November 21, 2015, governorship election in the state, has revealed the cause of the death of his father, Abubuakar Audu.
Mr Audu died on November 22, 2015 shortly after the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, declared the elections inconclusive.
In an interview with The Sun, Mr Mohammed dismissed insinuation that his father died of spiritual attack, saying he died of ulcer.
“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.”
