Interesting post!

[@olayiwolagiwa8596]

Abacha was very strategic.

[@izuchukwustanley8320]

And was an handsome man

[@Sickkkkiddddd]

Totally random but isn't that Chris Olukolade (Major at the time, i believe) behind Abacha in that picture?

[@Quasiloks]

The dribbling Maradona thinks he was invincible with his manipulation, but everyone knows in the end that it was him. Superb research and documentary.

[@louisotieno4712]

You talking about I. Babangida,here,right?

[@johnomojevwe8640]

Wow.thanks

[@carldare5813]

I love the way Abacha dissolved, cancelled and scattered everything! Sadly Abacha was never allowed to complete the revolution! Nigeria another hero to come and dissolve, cancelled and change the direction again!

[@abdulwasiujegede3923]

This is why education is important. Abacha was a purely educated entitled northern that got to power because of the lopsided arrangement of the country. He had no strategy nor the capacity to run a country. we live through a disastrous government, and we can tell he was a disaster.

[@aminudanmusa2265]

Great

[@saramainyugen8002]

Danke!

Stop saying Abacha is behind the manipulation of June 12 and its ibb regime not Abacha. All stories is saying is for Abacha.. pls live this man... rijf General sani Abacha

[@myteelyon5780]

Abacha was part of IBB government

[@jjj-yg2sz]

The best president

[@lagravitas3267]

Under who’s administration was Kudirat assassinated?

[@ativiejonathan3705]

IBB never knew those dates he mentioned to handover power will ever come to past.

[@musamuhammad2861]

May Allah bless our great leader

[@DejiTalker]

Your great leader indeed, kindly seek knowledge on how terrible he was as a leader, only bettered by present day Buhari administration. PS: He's rotting in hell @ this moment.

[@alexanderohabuenyi6469]

A good documentary no doubt, kudos

[@user-ze2wh6bz5g]

That's what we call game of the vulture

[@AbbasMohammed-pp4dt]

May Abacha soul rest in Peace

[@HRHPrinceFarouk]

At the end of the day, IBB could have really changed the destiny of Nigeria. I find the June 12 crisis sits at the center of what Nigeria could have been. At the very least, he might have saved us the tyranny of Abacha.

[@bamigbadealfurqpn8966]

Abacha was a chess player, no one can tell me otherwise

[@chinqueman]

If I understand well, Sani Abacha cane into power partly because they didn't want Abiola to come into power and move the capital back to Lagos? Wow

[@ademola5803]

I know that many labelled Abacha as a bad man, Nigerians national debt was drastically reduced.

[@tayobibi]
