This is quite a foolish answer.
How come Nigeria is so underdeveloped then? How come GEJ inherited 10 million almajiri's from previous govts? How come the groundnut pyramids vanished? How come cocao, rubber, oil palm etc disappeared? How come Nigeria has 167 million people, all dependent on oil from the Niger Delta?

There are a thousand and one other questions.

Some of you need to stop proferring daft retorts to everything.

Every President inherits the SINS of all other Presidents before him not their Legacies. Unfortunately the constitution cannot keep GEJ there for another 8 years. He can only do his (very) best in his time. All the more reason to nail-down critical reforms like Power+Oil and leave the rest future Presidents.

Under Abacha at least, we were under UN sanction, price of crude was somewhere around $19, but the guy with all his sins kept the economy stable. U didnot have people die as a result of bomb blast every sunday. However, IBB and Abach were bad president, so if someone says the previous 2 worst presidents were better than ur mentor, I can only imagine how bad he must really be.

If you had witnessed Abacha's regime, your post above would have come across as exaspiratingly daft. It is like proclaiming Hitler was a great leader.
In Hitlers case, he at least got the German economy moving.

Abacha deliberately ran down NNPC (with Buhari) and made the oil subsidy a way of life, primarily as a means to enrich himself. He actually used FG money to build a private refinery in Ivory Coast, so that he and his cronies alone could import fuel. Ivory Coast was developed at the expense of Nigeria to suit Abacha's pocket. There were also two exchange rates, one for Abacha and his friends and the other for the rest Nigerians. So the oil market being the only forex earner was also used to run another corrupt market for forex trading - it was during Abacha's time that "mallams" trading dollars at airports became a prevalent feature.
At the time of Abacha's death, the Naira was one tenth the value at which he met it.

Abacha killed Saro Wiwa, jailed and killed Abiola, charged Wole Soyinka with treason; sgt. Rogers and Major Hamza Almustapha hit squads assasinated all who dared speak including Mrs Kudirat Abiola, Alex Ibru was also the victim of a failed assasination. Press quipment was vandalised and Newspaper houses were routinely burnt and reporters murdered; of note are Concord, the Guardian and the BBC transmitter at Isolo. In the meantime, Lt-Col Okuntimo was running around the Niger Delta, burning down villages and carrying out mass excecutions.
Needless to say, in Abacha's time Seun would not have been able to visit Nigeria for fear of "disappearing."

Nigeria was a pariah state under Abacha with UN sanctions applied and we were suspended from the Commonwealth. We were roundly condemned by the United Nations, Earthlife Africa, Friends of the Earth, Greenpeace, Amnesty International etc.

What I have written is a mere summary.

Only fools praise the dead demon called Abacha.

Most of the things you have said about Abacha are true and probably more what you have here, but the OP wants to know if there is any other president worse dan Gridlock and am telling him that as bad as Abacha was, he was better than this guy. full stop.

How many did Abacha killed and how much was stolen by Abacha?
How much was stolen and still being stolen under the watch of GEJ?
Is the lives of the people you mentioned above better than the hundreds of poor christians being bombed every sunday or the innocent muslims who are gunned down everyday under the same watch of GEJ?

Simple! With all that are mentioned and many more that happened under Abacha, GEJ is still worse!

- Under Abacha when you challenge goverment they kill you.
- Under GEJ people are killed in their homes while they sleep, people are killed in the market places, places of worship etc.

What could be worse.
Re: Name One President Thats Better than GEJ by Nobody: 4:07pm On Jun 27, 2012
Imagine the absolute shock if you get to what appears to be heaven and you see Abacha there grin

Omo you go think "this must be a trap".
