Characters like Abba and Buhari will argue that Abacha did not steal, in spite of all the huge Abacha loot publicly returned to Nigeria over the years.
In spite of the Abacha family admitting to the theft by cutting a deal with the Nigerian govt to return part of the money to Nigeria and keep the rest, these characters still insist on denying reality in a most horrible demonstration of evil hypocrisy.
Yet, these same characters will do anything to locate political power in their Northern Muslim region, the home of the kleptomanic Abacha.
These characters will claim that they are fighting for justice for Nigeria.
They are both unified in profound and vicious ethnic/religious hypocrisy.
Abacha is a Northern Nigerian Muslim like them, and so reality must be revised for his sake.
When such characters claim to have anything to say agst corruption in Nigeria, shouting loudly as they do,does anthing they say or do along those lines have any value?
Does Nigeria exist a nation in the sense of shared values and common direction?
No.
Its a country of divided disparate entities, where everyone congregates but with which no one identifies as a project to develop in the common good.
Its like pouring water into a leaking basket.
As far as I can see, it cant work.
We need a discussion by all ethnicities as to where they want to go.

Abba,
Unless some of you are playing to the gallery, there have been numerous evidence showing that Gen. Abacha looted the treasury like most Nigeria presidents and heads of state before him and all of them after he was eliminated from the scene. They are all culpable in their respective effort to destroy the country through looting, embezzlement of the people's collective resources. Regardless of your denial, he looted the treasury like Babangida, Obasanjo, Buhari, Abdul Salami, Jonathan along with members of their cabinets, governors, permanent secretaries, heads of government agencies and business cronies. None of them is innocent. So call a spade, a spade and the issue will be left alone. Anyone that reads your denial on behalf of Abacha will conclude that you support the looting of the nation's resources as long as the looter is from your neck of the woods. Please stop defending the indefensible.

Joe the Pastor,Yes, I have not seen any incontrovertible evidence to that effect....and I believe if Abatcha was alive today, probably no one will be accusing him of thievery. If it is indeed true that he stole the said amount (as alleged by the Swiss), then I shall happily do a Kasirim (of Naijanet of yore) and reverse my priors. We spare no one, my friend. I never met with Abatcha or anyone in his family...I absolutely have no dog in this fight. I call it the way it is. Even if I did know or meet him (or his loved ones), that, in itself, will not remotely deter me from calling a spade a spade.AbbaOn 4 October 2015 at 15:35, Joe Attueyi topcrestt@yahoo.com [NigerianID] <NigerianID-noreply@yahoogroups.com> wrote:I second the motion.

Subject: Switzerland returns $380 million Abacha loot [Even After Dismissal of this Loot by New Nigerian Ruler]
see post and rich thread at link
Switzerland returns $380 million Abacha loot
About $380 million Nigerian money, stolen and stashed in accounts in Switzerland by late Head of State, Sani Abacha, will be returned, Swiss officials said Tuesday.
The money was confiscated in 2014 after it was transferred to the country from Luxembourg where it had been seized since 2006, Geneva prosecutors said.
This followed an agreement between the Nigerian Government and the family of the late dictator.
The money was confiscated on the ground that the Abacha family was a criminal organisation, according to the Swiss authorities.
The process of returning the loot to Nigeria will be supervised by the World Bank.
With the return, Geneva prosecutors have closed their case with the Abacha family which was opened in 1999. Abba Abacha was the last member of the family under investigation.
Meanwhile, previously Switzerland has returned to Nigeria more than $700 million that late Abacha hid in Swiss accounts.
