★★★FROM THE ARCHIVE★★★ Did You Know? The Late Simbiat Atinuke Abiola was a businesswoman and politician. In 1979, she ran for the position of a Senator in Ogun State (Gbagura Senatorial District) on the platform of the National Party of Nigeria, NPN, but was defeated by Chief Kunle Oyero. The MKO family would cite electoral fraud as nothing was recorded for her even in her own ward where her family voted. The final score was 54,137 votes by Oyero of the UPN to her own 20,289 votes. She was also the patron of the womens wing of the NPN and encouraged women to compete favourably with the males in the running of the countrys affairs. She also encouraged the female folk to win in large numbers, elections in the local councils in preparation for the general elections of 1983. MKO Abiola said that it was at the home of Simbiat, his girlfriend, that he tasted fried eggs for the first time in his life.
