@@Peggyg13 Abacha's administration laid the foundation for the job OBJ did. Even with the multiple sanctions from UN and the Commonwealth, Nigerians didn't feel any impact because Abacha opened up our economy to the Asian Tigers, that is, the developed economies of South East Asia.

Today, the "progressives" are in power - have been in power since 2015 - and Nigerians are suffering and eating from the bins.

Call it whatever, but we actually need a leader who is bold like this. Not that I support Abacha's acts of corruption, but I actually admired the fact that he knew what he wanted and went all out for it and succeeded.

I believe in all of this it was the tight security and the safety of the Aso Rock Villa he wouldn't have lasted so long without being toppled and kicked out if the Capital had remained in Lagos. They would have got to him real quick.
If Mr. Abiola took over as President. He would have been thrown off with a coup. To keep stability Gen. Abacha took over to get rid of remaining coup plotters in the Army also protect his friend Gen. Babangida. He died while in Office......I could write a book regarding this Power transfer.
You can see the way he is being praised by some of them that enjoy the corruption Nigerians is going today, because he is thsame with them, so it didn't matter to them the painful way Nigeria is going today
This is exactly what Nigerians need now. Military takeover and returning price of fuel to #200 per litre. All these tinubunomics, shetimanamics, akpabionomics coming from the current administration is hurting Nigerians so much.
Folks in the comments really celebrating a dictator that looted Nigeria so bad they're still recovering his loot to this day. We're not making it out of the trenches anytime soon
One of the problems am having with we African is whenever we begin to hail a leader which we know how brutal he was during his life time because he gave nice speech. They all have good speech to present simply because the speech was not written by most of them but that doesn't change who they are which is what we are seeing.
The fact remains he stood by his words even if he did not write the speech. Looking back at leaders that succeeded him I don't see any one who you can categorically say that surpasse him in achievement. He had his shortcomings as a ruler but security, economy and infrastructure wise you have to give it to Abacha. I still emphasize that non of his successors from 1998 can be said to be better than him in those aspects. Agreed he was a military dictator like all military governments but circumstances warranted some of his decisions on opposition. He did not annull June 12 election, Babangida did and he came to power only after Shonekan lost legitimacy from Nigerians
@@aliyumohammed7965 you right abacha was really smart man and strong leader no one can dispute that my alah subhanu watacala grant his gentle soul rest in peace ....alahuma amiin from somalia🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴
You are talking bought I tell you he was better than thieves that parade as assumed leaders. The lawlessness recklessness today is incomparable to that time though he has his shortcomings bought I tell you politicians from 1999 to 2024 are Unpatriotic you can read this patriotic spirit and throughout he never traveled to was though we were heavy sanctions bought never care instead he choose Nigerian to achievely leave inwardly and leaves distractions coming from Westerners. Democracy which should be government of the people and for the people and for the people. A civilian like you become a dictator they steal as much as they can and they are not made to face the crime they committed rather continue to be offered one portfolio to another
@@trentson6965 am not disputing the fact that things were not cheaper compared to this present time under democratic regime. That was then. Things were cheap probably as a result of the the level of technical advancement then. We should not also forget how people suffered and how hardship was the order of the today too. Am not saying things are better now. My point is that he was also a corrupt leader just like the present ones who need not to be celebrated because of nice speech. If we continued with this mentality then a period is coming when Buhari and Tinubu would be celebrated with great esteem.
@@Simon_and_Lamiyes President Obasanjo weakened the military during his time as president form 1999 to 2007. So military dont have such power , intelligence and finances to overthrow any government in Nigeria again.
These comments disgust me! Abacha, the single most inhumane and corrupt president in the history of Nigeria us suddenly your hero. What a country! We really do have such a VERY SHORT MEMORY

Yorubad was so happy when this man died i was coming back from school then i saw people rejoicing because i was 5 years old i joined them now i regretting to see Madmmedu buhari and Kurubu as my presidolt
I am amazed at people trying to rewrite history to make this man look good. It must be the GEN Zs. But its those who removed history from our curriculum , I blame!
Had it been he is alive today , do you think anyone could have dared to level the same accusations against him. Today many Young Ugandans will wish to have Idi Amin again cause they now realize the West and media demonize Idi Amin. Sani Abacha made mistakes of not doing video interviews or maybe they have been destroyed.
Did Abacha not loot Nigeria far more than those whom he dissolved. Keep fooling yourself, the military is even more corrupt than civilians. Who are those sabotaging the fight against banditry and terrorism in the north? Keep fooling yourself. Go and watch the days of military regime, ask your fathers let them educate your ignorant mind.
After this speech, people were hopeful because he also said he'd hand over the leadership to the man who won the last election. In just one year. People were hopeful. But what happened? He ruled for five years and people were subjected to untold suffering. You guys go and read your history or watch this movie titled, "The Last Military President" before you start praising his eloquent speech. Politicians always have good manifestos. When they get in power, they show what they are.
