Former Nigeria’s President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, on Sunday, revealed how former president of the United States of America, Jimmy Carter, saved him from death in the hands of late General Sanni Abacha.
He said this during a memorial service in honour of the late US President, who died at the age of 100 years, last year December, held at Chapel of Christ The Glorious King, in Abeokuta.
Obasanjo noted that the visit and effort of the late US President to the late Abacha made his release from detention possible.
The former president said, the late Carter, was the only non-African leader, who paid a visit to Abacha solely to plead for his release, according to information at his disposal.
