Femi Adesina said ( about Sani Abacha ) : “That was what the marabouts did to Sani Abacha, that he remained holed in Aso Rock. Between November 1993 and June 1998 that he was head of state, you could count both local and foreign trips he made on the fingers of one hand,”

Ayo Adebanjo said ( about Sani Abacha ) : “He should be man of the moment to fight this tyranny because the tyranny we are fighting now in the country is worse than what we had under Abacha,” “It is an occasion like this that would remind one that we have lost a man of great attributes.

Mustapha said ( about Sani Abacha ) : “I am surprised by the way Abacha is being blackmailed. I am surprised because when he assumed leadership, Nigeria had less than $2bn in the foreign reserve. I have said it that there was a period Nigeria was to be sanctioned. So there were plans to keep money overseas so that Nigeria and Nigerians would not suffer when the sanction was imposed on the country. We gathered emirs and chiefs from the South and from the North, together with VIPs of that time; those in government and those not in government. We met at a place called Camp Bassey Officers’ Mess in the Brigade of Guards. It was there we deliberated on the threat to sanction Nigeria. Many decisions were made,”
