Pope is not related to Jesus Christ
It's just another fake religion called Catholism
Igbo people dont quote me..thats what most of you were raised up in

It is only an uninformed non Christian that can say this. Go and educate yourself.

To warn him not to islamize Nigeria!!!

But being the stubborn goat he(Abacha) was, he was adamant!

Not too long the pope departed from him, he died a shameless death!!!

So will it be for those trying to do the same!

Abacha really help/saved Southern Nigerians from the hands of the Fulani.

Abacha gave us the independent the British didn't give us,
Ask your elders.
Abacha was a military man not a jihadist like Buhari

Three months later after the visit Abacha died.

In other words, the current Pope should schedule a visit to Nigeria sharp sharp.

You people have short memories, no wonder you can't trace your history.

That's why in politics, no one gives you anything. You are only useful for carrying banners in Eagle's Square.

You too, shut up. Let God fight for his anointed. Or did God beg you to defend him? If God wants to punish him, so be it. No one involved you.

Please, don't drag the South South into your unfortunate madness. If you Igbos have no knowledge of history, that is your problem. Abacha killed Alfred Rewane, Killed Kenule Saro Wiwa and 8 other Ogoni men and poured acid on their corpses and one Igbo fool is saying Abacha was loved in the SS. Is your father mad?

Wherever you see a thief or a criminal, there would always be an Igbo man ready to defend him and his crimes.

You think Ken Saro Wiwa is an icon outside Ogoniland? You don't know much about the SS region, Ijaws named their Headquarters after Abacha during this democratic dispensation and it was not imposed on them

You can give your mother to Abacha to impregnate if you like, just don't involve the SS in your ass licking.

Abacha was Nigeria's Gaddafi, who wanted to bring development across the country. The largest housing estate project in Africa is in Gwarinpa Abuja started by Abacha.
He established PTF which he unfortunately handed over to a bigoted Buhari who used it to promote himself in the North, not much got to the South East and South South which was never the intention of Abacha, now this is the reason Abacha us loved in the SE/SS which confuses Yorubas. Govt house in Yenagoa is named after him.

Some of the monies said to be looted where actually plans of circumventing sanctions by the West against Nigeria, I am not saying he was not corrupt.
Abacha is better than Buhari anyday.
Abacha had his vision 2010 which he was following diligently despite Yoruba led NADECO propaganda of Tinubu and his Omonile cohorts.
Who is this dindinrin?

Unknown to Abacha the Pope's plea for the release of political prisoners was his last chance at keeping his life. The planning of his death was undergoing.... they couldn't get close till the visit of Yasser Arafat.

You are definitely more than 40 years. Only the elders know this story. Abacha was poisoned by the West through Yasser Arafat so that Yasser Arafat and Palestinians could get some support from the West agsint Israel. International politics is deep, you cannot understand it at the surface, you need to have studied it over years for you to understand that every Big Nation is fighting for what it can gain from the Small Ignorant Nations.

You type as if commonsense is a taboo in your family. Obviously, your fingers are keeping malice with your brain.

Your level of stupidity can't be acquired, it must have been inherited. Your unwavering commitment to stupidity should be studied as part of animal behaviour.
