This video explains the intrigues of the last day of General Sani Abacha on earth (his last 24 hours) In the early morning hours of June 8, 1998, General Sani Abacha, Nigeria’s military dictator, died in the presidential villa in Abuja.
The sudden death of the Kanoborn tyrant cast a dark shadow on the political future of the country, but sparked wide spread jubilation across the country.
He was buried on the same day, according to Islamic practice, without a formal autopsy.
This conduct has resulted in several hypotheses as to what may have caused General Sani Abacha's death.
Some claim he was killed by poisoned apple while in company of sex workers, while others believe he was assassinated (or poisoned) by his political opponents.
