We require the properties of superabundant numbers, that is to say left to right maxima of $n \mapsto \frac{\sigma(n)}{n}$. In this note, using Robin's inequality on superabundant numbers, we prove that the Riemann Hypothesis is true. This proof is an extension of the article ``Robin's criterion on divisibility'' published by The Ramanujan Journal on May 3rd, 2022. Keyphrases: Riemann hypothesis, Robin's inequality, Superabundant numbers, prime numbers, sum-of-divisors function
