Obasanjo Reveals Abacha Nearly Killed Him [READ] by horizonhotspot(m): 12:45pm On Aug 23, 2015 |
Former President, Olusegun Obasanjo has recalled how he escaped death under the leadership of later former dictator, Sani Ababcha. Obasanjo, who made this disclosure on Friday at his Presidential Hilltop residence in Abeokuta, while playing host to officials of the National Association of Nigerians Students, said he would support President Buhari’s government. Recalling his near death experience under the late Abacha administration, Obasanjo said that he and some retired military officers and civilians were jailed in 1995 for allegedly plotting to overthrow the administration and released after Abacha’s death in 1998. He said, “The alternative to democracy is worse than democracy. I experienced that. Abacha put me in prison and I was about to be killed. If it was under democracy (democratic rule) that would not happen. “I will work for the success of this current dispensation. There is no excuse, because there is no alternative to democracy”. The Ota farmer noted that no matter what the critics of President Muhammadu Buhari might be saying, Nigerians had started to witness a Nigeria of their dreams within the two months of his leadership.
