Aisha Muhammed, daughter of former Head of State, late General Murtala Ramat Muhammed, has attributed the ease with which her father was assassinated to his simple lifestyle and principled leadership approach.

Speaking on ARISE News’ The Morning Show on Monday, Aisha who is also the Chief Executive Officer of the Murtala Muhammed Foundation reflected on her father’s leadership on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of his assassination, describing him as a leader who practised the values he preached.

She said the late military leader was deeply committed to accountability, responsibility and discipline, noting that his strong anti-corruption stance was not merely rhetorical but reflected in his personal conduct and style of governance.

According to her, General Muhammed viewed corruption as a “cankerworm” capable of destroying society and believed that leaders must embody integrity in both public office and private life.

“My father’s leadership style was very clear. He believed in accountability and responsibility. His anti-corruption stance was not something he just talked about—he genuinely believed corruption would destroy our society, and 50 years later, we can see the consequences,” she said.
