Elder Simeon Babani Seidu Abuh, widower of the slain Peoples Democratic Party PDP Woman Leader in Ofu Local Government Area of Kogi State, Hon. Salome Acheju Abuh has again cried out to President Muhammadu Buhari, the Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello and international agencies, demanding justice for the gruesome killing of his wife in late 2019.
Abuh in a statement issued Friday in Abuja recalled that his wife was “burnt alive” and “four fully furnished houses in his family compound were also burnt down, with the fifth made inhabitable, on Monday, 18th November 2019 by the All Progressive Congress APC thugs, chanting GYB 4+4 and shooting sporadically, after the declaration of the election results in favour of the APC”.

As the family of the deceased kicks, security agencies charged with the task of fishing out her killers seem not to have done enough in bringing the perpetrators to justice.
Husband of the late politician, Elder Simeon Babani Seidu Abuh, who spoke with our correspondent, said the family was still in trauma over the gruesome murder of his wife.
According to him, the family is deeply pained that justice was yet to be served in the matter.
He said that he has written a petition to President Muhammadu Buhari demanding justice over the killing.
