because he was a muslim.

Lol , Muslims see themselves as saints na while others are infidels & thieves.

Maybe because of this!

If not for the human right abuse and his dictatorship he would have been one of Nigeria's best leader. Abacha is a discipline man, the first Nigerian soldier to attain the rank of a full General without skipping a single rank. Oh! Abacha why did you do this to yourself? Now you are remembered for nothing but a shameless thief and dictator ...

A lot of what the media tells us is hog wash..Abacha was the best head of state bar his human right records. This picture tells a lot of what the world powers did to Abacha that day..Arafat was used to poison him. The "apple" and prostitute story na wash. There was an international conspiracy to do away with Abacha for:
1. He wanted to expose the shame of a high ranking clergy in the catholic church (Vatican trembled and the pope had to pay him a visit in the name of the beautification of Blessed Cyprian Michael Iwene Tansi. Abacha refused his overtures and the pope decreed a death sentence for him.
2. The growing Nigeria economy despite the sanctions became a nightmare for Europe and America. His foray into nuclear energy and his quest for total economic independence meant that Nigeria will be at par with Europe, developed Asia, North America, and Latin America. This was unacceptable to the west. His vision 2020 was an obsession. He once said in private: " I want( U.S.A President) Clinton to call me Sir". He wanted Nigeria to be better than the UAE and will stop at nothing to achieve that goal.
3. Abacha's anti west posture and his friendship with America's enemy meant that a new power block will emerge. This new power block if combined with Russia, China, Iran and the other nations considered as rouge nations will become the dominant determining economic block. Nigeria's rise under a dictator like Abacha spelt doom for the West.
The west made a deal with Arafat and there we have it. Abacha died and so did Arafat. Arafat was used and dumped and we celebrated. Too bad!

SFSNIPER:
Arafat's bodyguard, that tall guy in suit killed Abacha and not Brazilian girls or an Apple. The guy shook Abacha and pierced him slightly with a poisoned ring. Mustapha has already given a detailed info on what really happened.

Yeah, I've read the narratives from Mustapha. Abachas death was high profile.

During Abacha regime Nigeria was listed among the poorest countries in the world. Infact we were the 13th most poorest countries. Poverty was another name for Nigeria during his regime.

Meaning: Buhari does not understand the meaning of "corruption"

Shameless youths praising Abacha.


The same bas, tard that killed Ken Saro-wiwa and about 7 ogoni activists for simply demanding an environment free of oil spillage!


You guys are evil! you deserve Abacha's judgement.

biggest looter in nigeria's history.

Thats my point,what you remember is the way your parents and neighbours screamed and not Abacha's face.

Was Saro-Wiwa really active for ecological reasons? go get your facts right. The militants we have in the delta today are from where please? Go dig a little more.

I now have no doubts that common sense is unaffordable luxury to you and your ilk even if it is given free of charge. Waste of a sperm.

richidinho:

The guy is right. Exorcise your spirits of NADECO prpoganda and you would be amazed at the originality and nationalistic thrust of Abachas politics both locally and internationaly. There is a reason why the west contineu to criticise him even upto this day. Obasanjo is far corrupt than Abacha but he is their darling. Go figure. .

He used the glasses to cover symptoms of liver cirrhosis

It was all a part of the elaborate plot by the Northern mafia to eliminate him!

ESU

Nobody knows the hour nor the time death will come. That is one of the reasons why I keep praising GEJ for allowing peace to reign in this country. He knew the presidency is not is birth right and he remembered that someone died for him to be there. GEJ is a very good man, I hope Buhari will learn from him how to let go when his own time comes.

There's is nothing we came with to this world and certainly nothing we shall go with no matter the things we amass here.

Upon all the money Abacha amassed he couldn't even go with any. People should fear God and remember that one day shall come when the ground shall be home.

RIP to the dead and the living should remember one day shall come.

indian gals gave him apple wit poison it it

Naa that is what they want the common man to believe but his death was 100% classified perpetrated by the west mainly to confistcaste his loot, remember Pope John Paul gave him a little clue of his death but he never could figure it out quick enough. Abacha wanted to run this country like Libya of Gaddafi but the evil West stopped it because of their grossly selfish interest.

Abacha is truly a great man, he is a respecter of no man be you west, north, east nor south, I doff my hat for you sir RIP
