SANI ABACHA; THE LESSON WE ALL FAIL TO LEARN

Bishops Avenue is one of UK ’s most opulent street.
It is also known as Billionaires' Row because many well known international
wealthy men have a penchant to have a house there as the ultimate status symbol.
It is more easily compared to a slimmed-down version of America 's Bellevue Avenue , in Newport , Rhode Island .
some of the houses there are owned by the Saudi royal family,
whilst other notable owners of houses on the street include the Sultan of Brunei.

Mamma mia! I shouted at the sight of Abacha’s massive mansion in the expansive and expensive compound.
While the avenue was not famous for small houses, Abacha’s house was one of the grandest on the road
where the smallest house is known to cost over £5m. Babangida also had a house there.

I was reliably told Sani bought the house while he was the president of Nigeria
and records showed he never travelled to UK nor any Western country throughout his presidency
which indicates that the best he could have seen of the house was just the picture or the video of it.
He never had the privileged that I had to drive in front of the stately gate and fence of the stately house.

I had the opportunity to see the house live but he didn’t,
I could behold the beauty and the magnificence which he couldn’t.
Then I wondered what a waste of resources?
Why did he build a house he never needed and would never enter nor live in?
Why steal to acquire earthly possession all over the place as if here is the final destination? Why? Why? Why?....?

How many of such houses did he acquire?
Did he own other mansions in Kensington Palace Gardens in London (world’s most expensive neighbourhood)
or Jupiter Island in Florida or Belle Haven in Greenwich , 
or Victoria Peak in Hong Kong or Seventh Arrondissement in Paris ? Who knows?

Abacha was a psychiatric case of the worst order ,it is because Nigerians are docile people otherwise how can such a lunatic preside over us for 5 years .Never again shall we as a Nation allow such debased mind to have anything to do with our presidency .
