The bolded part is what I told some people many years ago, but they opposed it. Their argument was that Nigeria is different from other African countries. I then asked them, “What would you do if Abacha were still ruling today?” but they had no tangible response. If not for his death, Abacha would have ruled this nation for over 20 years or more, unless a coup removed him from the throne, or death, as the case may be.
I know many people will still not agree with the post simply because you were in Nigeria. But if you had been born in Cameroon, what would you have done?

Let me help you answer the question:
ABSOLUTE NOTHING!!!

GloriousGbola:
some people however say that abacha was poisoned
that they figured the best vector to use for him [the prostitutes]

KingTom:
The difference is Nigerians took out Abacha by any means necessary bro while Cameroonians and the other African counfires masturbated in tears, Nigeria is different no allow anyone whine you, Obj 3rd term agenda failed multiple coup attempts have failed and have been swept under the carpet no allow anybody whine you. The only issue we have is we are not willing to die for anybody in the name of any useless protest but we have a very strong 'this too shall pass' belief and if e no gree pass dem go help am pass

raumdeuter:
How did we take out Abacha? God just decided it was time for Abacha to die na wetin save us be that

GloriousGbola:
now that you mention it - it was nigerians that stood up and protested until GEJ was sworn in. if it was another African country - the corpse of yardua may have run the full eight years.

also nigeria where teh same gej ws voted out even as they tried to scatter the election with orubebe etal

BlueRayDick:
Funny thing is when the police reacted to the initial story they claimed stun gun is a weapon which is prohibited/illegal. Now they are saying it is non lethal device.

They can't even be consistent all in a bid to sweep the whole thing under carpet. Anyways it's not like we were expecting anything diffrent Sha.

raumdeuter:
The same Nigerians protested for MKO to be made president after winning an election, Thousands were gunned down, MKO was thrown in prison for 4yrs , another thousands were killed or fled for their lives

If any leader, has control of the military that does most of the job. Next is supress the media

iamoyindamola:
I responded and got banned
Stun gun can kpai person sha

iamoyindamola:
We are politicians depending on how inhumane you are

GloriousGbola:
something definitely happened - especially when you consider the person sworn in after abacha died immediately pushed for elections rather than chasing power or interim govt

iamoyindamola:
We are politicians depending on how inhumane you are

BlueRayDiick:
Of course, it will knock someone out and if the person has high blood pressure that person fit kpai from the shock.

BlueRayDiick:
He probably saw how people reacted to the initial statement and decided to quickly do damage contol.

He's a smart guy.

You get egbon!!! The only bad thing is we as a people have the ability to adjust to any situation and that's not always a good thing but as far as lifetime leadership is concerned? We no dey for that one. If we were like other African Countries then Mohammed Abacha would still be ruling us, when he finishes Jamal Abacha will continue etc etc

MorataFC:
Which Nigerians are you talking about?
Who and Who?
Do Nigerians have stronger heads than Russians? God really did it for us not any man or any strategy. Like I said earlier, if Abacha hadn’t died, he would have ruled for as long as he wanted, and there’s nothing you or I could have done about it. We should all thank God it ended the way it did.

GloriousGbola:
i refuse to believe that statement did not pass through a ceo or at the very least the head of corporate comms

raumdeuter:
There was a time we used to swear that no Nigerian will ever be a terrorist nor suicide bomber until it happened

After Abacha died, it was Al Mustapha his CSO that knew about it and he decided who to give, He didn't trust Useni who was a Lt Gen and most senior. He gave it to Abulsalam a Major General

Mohammed Abacha was not really interested he was more into enjoyment
