Abdul, one of the sons of the late Moshood Kashimawo Olawale Abiola, has said that his elder brother, Kola, cannot rule Nigeria.
Abdul stated this in an interview on a podcast: “Mic On,” hosted by Seun Okinbaloye, on Sunday.
He said Kola failed in his duty to manage Abiola’s empire.
Recall that Kola contested for the presidency on the platform of the Peoples Redemption Party in 2023.
However, Abdul lamented Kola’s inability to sustain Abiola’s political legacy and unite the family.
Abdul said: “MKO Abiola’s legacy would have been properly sustained if Kola was in a better position. And he could have been a voice of better democratic values, but he chose not to.
“During the time my father was still in jail, he was busy (with other things).
