The biological father of the late Bilyaminu Bello, Alhaji Ahmed Bello Isa, has revealed that he personally appealed to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to grant a presidential pardon to his daughter-in-law, Maryam Sanda, who was sentenced to death for the murder of her husband in 2017.
Isa, who spoke in Abuja alongside Maryam’s father, Alhaji Garba Sanda, described the clemency as a welcome relief, saying his quest to secure Maryam’s freedom was purely humanitarian and rooted in forgiveness and faith.
