Reno Omokri, former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, has identified the late former military Head of State, Sani Abacha, as the biggest thief in world history, stating that 21-years after, more loots linked to the former dictator were still being uncovered.

Omokri was responding to the claim by Nasir El-Rufai, Governor of Kaduna State, that Northerners are rarely arrested for advance fee fraud, popularly known in local parlance as Yahoo Yahoo.

Speaking at the Northern Youth summit organised by Northern Hibiscus Initiative in Kaduna on Saturday, El-Rufai said although the North was the most backward and uneducated region in Nigeria, it was a thing of pride that Northerners were rarely arrested for Yahoo Yahoo and other financial crimes.

El-Rufai had said: “Nigeria consists of two countries; there is a backward, less educated and unhealthy northern Nigeria, and a developing, largely educated and healthy southern Nigeria. We have to speak the truth to ourselves and ask why is it that northern Nigeria has development indicators similar to Afghanistan, a country still at war?

“We have the largest number of poor people in the world, most of them in northern Nigeria. Nigeria also has the largest number of out of school children, virtually all of them in Northern Nigeria.

“We are being considered as the parasite of the federal economy, even though, that is not entirely true. Because northern Nigeria still feeds the nation. The richest businessman in Nigeria is still Aliko Dangote, not someone from Southern Nigeria, thank God for that.

“So, we still have a lot to be proud of. We should be proud of our culture and tradition, as well as unity. You hardly can find someone from northern Nigeria convicted of 419 or being a Yahoo boy. That is something we should be proud of.

Responding in a post on Twitter, Omokri said: “Dear Elrufai,

“Before you label Southerners fraudsters, note that the biggest thief in world history is Sani Abacha. 21 years after, his loot is still being recovered, though @MBuhari said ‘Abacha never stole’.

“There are good and bad Nigerians in North and South!”

Na hell-rufai first find trouble, ntooor

And yet another sanctimonious thief who was his right handed man when he held sway while looting Nigeria dry said "Abacha never stole a dime"

Meanwhile, the same Buhari whose government have been on a looting spree is shamelessly receiving large trenches of the endless Abacha stashed away loots.

This Reno get savage for mouth like,

Abacha is also the most generous and loving thief. Even from the grave,he keeps sending credit alert in dollars,euros and pound sterling to Nigeria

My problem is not even El-rufai, but how Buhari just woke up one morning, brush his teeth, take his bath, wear his clothes and came out to tell us that Abacha Never Stole.





Please good people of Nairaland, if someone accomodates fraudsters, thieves and embezzlers what is the person??

My brother, isn't it obvious??

Now everything is about North versus South and vice versa.
Buhari you are doing very well.

In the late 90s and early 2000s, northerners were the most popular for 'wash-wash' in the middle east. #fact

Babangida, Danjuma, Dantata, and other artificial billionaires nko?

But El Rufai is right na. How can an uneducated backward person do yahoo yahoo?

You need to be intelligent to do yahoo yahoo na.

How is the north feeding the south? and what does Dangote being the richest man have to do with anything.

If the north know what they are doing they can feed most of west Africa and leave oil alone but being so uneducated, backward and parochial they can never see the big picture.

The one Buhari is stealing now will shock the world when he leaves office in 2023. By the time Buhari is done with looting the country, Nigeria will find herself on Olx waiting for the highest bidder

Abacha the only President that credit our account from hell �

Let's use data.

How much did Abacha steal so we can value it in present day loot value

abacha helped us fixed our money ni jo according to one leader.

Believe me, not all was retrieved.


His family, can still never be poor as Dangote.


Northerners don wound this country no bi small..

El-Rufai spoke frankly about the travails facing his people without mining words and did not dance around the abject poverty plaguing them.

Reno Omokri has now with his characteristic childishness is bringing sentiments into it.

Jonathan's government was very corrupt but he, a clergy man praises it till high heavens. El-Rufai no matter how much you hate him stands tall for speaking the truth here while people urge to be frank with Reno to remove the log in his master's eye before he hypocritically condemns others.

That's a fact

I have never been on the same page with Omokri because of our political difference. On this particular case, I am standing with Omokri. El-Rufai is talking nonsense.
