Intervene in MKO Abiola’s oil firm operations, son Abdulmumuni begs Tinubu
Oct 6, 2024
Abdulmumuni, son of late billionaire businessman, MKO Abiola, has appealed to President Bola Tinubu to caution his half-brother, Kola, over the dealings involving their late father’s company, Summit Oil.
He noted that while Tinubu was a friend of Abiola before his death, the squabble over the running of his father’s asset shouldn’t be witnessed while Tinubu is in office.
Abdulmumuni had also accused Kola and his sister, Wura, of independently running the oil company, one of their father’s many enterprises, without the consent of other family members.
This was revealed in a programme titled ‘Mic On Podcast’ hosted by Channels TV presenter, Seun Okinbaloye.
The video of the programmewas released on Saturday, October 5, 2024.
Abdulmumuni lamented that Kola and his sister, Wura, made themselves the Executive Chairman and Managing Director, respectively; a move which he termed as illegal.
Kola and Wura are some of the children of Abiola’s first wife, Simbiat; while Abdulmumuni, and some others, are children of the second wife, Kudirat.
Abdulmumuni noted that the oil company, among others, was captured in his father’s will.
He recalled that he had written a petition to the Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, to probe the oil company’s operations.
He said, “We are writing a letter to Mr President, seeking his intervention in this matter. Whichever way, he is the Minister for Petroleum. He should see what they have done with my father’s oil company, and know that if this can be happening in such a company, God knows how many companies are also using that, and that might be a reason why our subsidies and all these things are becoming unbearable.
