Al-Mustapha to be Reinstated to the Nigerian Army

New reports have indicated that the Nigerian Army would likely reinstate Maj. Hamza Al-Mustapha into the service following the dismissal of the murder of Kudirat Abiola, on June 4, 1996.


According to reports, on Monday, Col. John Agim, Chief of Staff in the Directorate of the Army Public Relations said: “With regards to Mustapha’s release, well, I want to confirm that he is still in the army.

The case is going to be handled by the army administratively in line with the harmonised terms and conditions of service.’’


Vanguard reports:

Al-Mustapha, the former Chief security Officer to former head of state, late Gen. Sani Abacha, regained his freedom on Friday after 14 years in detention.

A Court of Appeal, sitting in Lagos, discharged and acquitted him over an alleged conspiracy  and murder.

The court had upturned a death sentence handed down on him on Jan. 30, 2013, by Justice Mojisola Dada, of a Lagos High Court.

Thousands of people, including traders and commercial tricycle operators, thronged the Malam Aminu Kano International Airport, Kano, to welcome Al-Mustapha on Sunday.
