Omoyele Sowore, the African Action Congress’ presidential candidate, has stated that the case of the late journalist and activist Dele Giwa, who was killed in Ikeja, Lagos, on October 19, 1986, with a bomb concealed in a package, will be revisited.

Sowore slammed the former military leader Ibrahim Babangida in a tribute post for the deceased activist on Wednesday, saying that he was involved in the plot to kill Giwa. He then said that Giwa’s case would be reopened.

“36 years ago, ex-military dictator, Ibrahim Babangida, plotted with Halilu Akilu (Ex-Director of National Intelligence) and Col A.K Togun (now deceased) to send a letter bomb that assassinated foremost investigative journalist, Dele Giwa, in his house in Ikeja. We’ll reopen the case!” Sowore posted.

He shared pictures of the late journalist as alongside a flyer that read, “Who killed Dele Giwa?”
