<p>The daughter of Nigeria&#8217;s late military ruler, Gumsu Sani Abacha, has mourned her father on the 27th anniversary of his passing.</p>
<p>She made the post on her verified Facebook page with the following statements:</p>
<p>&#8220;General Sani Abacha died on this day June 8, 1998.<br />
The day you left, the West America, Britain, and their Nigerian agents rejoiced.<br />
They popped champagne and sold Nigerians a bold lie:<br />
‘Abacha is the problem. Remove him, and paradise will follow.’<br />
But 27 years later, the truth is staring us in the face:<br />
Abacha wasn’t the problem — Abacha was the shield.<br />
Under your watch:<br />
A mudu of rice was affordable.<br />
A derica of rice or beans was N45.<br />
A loaf of bread was N20 and it could fill you.<br />
Even N5 had meaning and dignity.<br />
Today? N5 is a joke, an insult, a symbol of failure.<br />
The naira didn’t collapse — leadership did.<br />
You cut taxes and protected the poor.<br />
They taxed everything that breathes and gave the people nothing.<br />
You said NO to the IMF.<br />
They said YES, and sold Nigeria for cents on the dollar and collected commissions.<br />
Today, insecurity is our daily bread.<br />
Over 7 million Nigerians sleep in IDP camps.<br />
Over 5,000 villages have fallen to terrorists and kidnappers.”</p>

<p>The news of the general&#8217;s death was leaked to foreign media before it was officially announced by the Nigerian Government through Radio Nigeria in the evening.</p>
<p>Abacha&#8217;s death brought to an end his five-year rule, which saw the imprisonment of political opponents, including Nigeria’s former Head of State, General Olusegun Obasanjo, and the late MKO Abiola, who won the June 12, 1993, presidential elections.</p>
<p>General Sani Abacha’s funeral took place on the night of Monday, June 8, at the Kano Race Course, in the presence of his successor, former Military Head of State General Abdulsalami Abubakar, and members of the military&#8217;s highest ruling body, the Provisional Ruling Council (PRC).</p>
<p> ;</p>
<p>The Late Chief Imam of Kano Sheikh Idris Kuliya Alkali led the funeral prayers.</p>
<p> ;</p>
<p>He was buried at his residence along Gidado Road in Nassarawa GRA, Kano, where he hailed from.</p>
