Judge Mojisola Dada of Lagos court of appeal today sentenced Abacha's right hand man and orchestrator of many high profile killing, Major Hamza Al-mustapha to death by hanging.
The sentence is a result of the trial for the machine gun killing of late MKO Abiola's wife in 1993 as well as the masterminding of other high profile killing in Nigeria during Abacha's reign.
Also sentenced to death by hanging alongside Al-Mustapha is shofolahan.
Abacha's chief security officer (Al-Mustapha) is being sentenced for ordering sgt Rogers (Barnabas Jabila) to kill the wife MKO Abiola.
Shofolahan who was Mrs Kudirat's protocol officer was implicated by major Hamza Al-mustapha as being responsible for giving away Mrs Kudirat's itinerary that aided her killers to find her.
Mr Shofolahan however denied ever working for Mrs Kudirat through out her life-time.
So far I have not heard when the sentence shall be carried out. Al-Mustapha has already spent 13years in prison while waiting for this sentence.
