Mrs. Modupe Onitiri-Abiola, one of the wives of the late Chief MKO Abiola, on Friday declared her intention to contest the 2015 governorship election in Lagos State.
Onitiri-Abiola, wife of the acclaimed winner of the annulled June 12, 1993 presidential elections, however, did not mention the party's platform on which she would contest.
She told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos that her motive for seeking the votes of the electorate was to assist in poverty eradication.
Onitiri-Abiola said that she worked with her late husband in the struggle for the actualisation of the June 12 elections annulled by the military regime of former president, Ibrahim Babangida, in 1993.
