Abacha didn't steal, he looted. Buhari is right, stealing is different from looting.

The funny thing is Grand Pa Buhari said Abacha was not corrupt.

...I think we see corruption differently in this country.

Cos if Abacha was not corrupt according to the septuagenarian general then I don't know what corruption is anymore..

Because Abacha is his countryman. To the average northerner. There is no Nigeria just northern Nigeria

Abacha did not loot or steaL- FACT
Re: Why Did Buhari Say Abachi Did Not Steal? by Nobody: 2:10pm On Mar 06, 2015
Abacha was not a looter

compare the records of all those that have accused Abacha of looting.

A honest man says Abacha did not loot, but most Nigerians prefer to believe dishonest leaders

Because as at the time, there was no prove that Abacha stole perhaps.

But come to think of it:
1. Is Abacha so foolish to have taken such monies to an enemy territory, – Western countries he's been fighting with throughout his regime? Whoever takes his prized possession to a known enemy is a proposition I find difficult to imagine!
2. Why weren't any revelations from the Eastern bloc or the Arab World, where it is expected Abacha would take his money to, since they weren't hostile to him?
3. Ain't we so foolish too to have believed Abacha's enemies that he was the only greatest looter to have emerged since the creation of Nigeria?
4. Didn't Abacha stash billions in Nigerian banks, and why aren't we hearing of it if he did?
5. And how many people know that of all the Heads of State we had, Abacha's father was probably the richest of them all – being an established merchant and industrialist in Kano, even before Abacha's rise to prominence?
6. And lastly, why is there always 'Abacha money' at a time of great political turmoil?
Re: Why Did Buhari Say Abachi Did Not Steal? by Nobody: 9:09am On Mar 18, 2015
The "Abacha didn't steal statement" by Mr Buhari is what I'm yet to come to terms with.
Re: Why Did Buhari Say Abachi Did Not Steal? by Olaolufred(m): 9:10am On Mar 18, 2015
[size=14pt]BECAUSE GOVERNMENT IN POWER HAS SAID THAT STEALING IN ITSELF IS NOT A BAD THING.

IT IS ALSO DIFFERENT FROM CORRUPTION.

IT IS THE DUTY OF GOVT. TO PROSECUTE CRIMES, NOT TO BE MAKING DOCUMENTRY ON CRIMINALS OR ALLEGED CRIMINALS.

The questions you posed are indeed pertinent to this issue of looted money repatriated from the west. I believe someone, somewhere is trying to make him look badder than he was. Not as if he was a saint anyway but I just can't believe he`d stash money in western countries when he courted china and the arab countries. By my reckoning, I think IBB and OBJ are way more corrupt than the fella.
