alana faults Abdulsalami’s claim, insists Abacha looted Nigeria’s treasury
Human rights lawyer and Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), Femi Falana, has rejected former Head of State, General Abdulsalami Abubakar’s assertion that the late General Sani Abacha did not loot Nigeria’s treasury, describing the claim as an attempt to rewrite history.
He argued that the decree, signed by Abdulsalami himself, undermines the former Head of State’s recent claim that the recovered assets were government savings.
In a statement titled “Re: Abdulsalami Abubakar: Abacha Never Looted Treasury,” Falana argued that the recovery of billions of dollars linked to Abacha’s family and associates, as well as official government actions taken after his death, contradict the former military ruler’s position.
