Two children of the acclaimed winner of the June 12,
1993, Presidential election, late Chief MKO Abiola, are suing the
Lagos State Police Command to the tune of N100 million over their
arrest and detention in connection with a robbery incident at their
family House.

The two sons Kassim and Aliyu Abiola, approached the Ikeja
Judicial Division of the Lagos State High Court of Lagos State for
the enforcement of their fundamental rights.

In the suit filed on their behalf by a Senior Advocate of
Nigeria Mike Ozekhome on Saturday, they alleged that their
stepmother, Adebisi Abiola, is responsible for their arrest, having
accused them of involvement in the robbery.

Ozekhome, however, asked the court to order the release of
Kassim and Aliyu, noting that their arrest was a violation of their
fundamental human rights.

The judge, thereafter, directed that the Commissioner of Police
be put on notice about the suit, and adjourned the matter to
October 15, 2020.
