Thanks for sharing , i was never a fan of buhari and idiagbon. Unfortunately Nigerians voted buhari as president again. But this time (8yrs) he put nigeria and nigerians in coffin. RIP nigeria
I would like to comment on four areas. Firstly, Commonwealth countries exchange high commissions and not embassies as you mentioned several times in this clip. Britain's diplomatic mission in Nigeria is a high commission and the high commission is headed by the high commissioner, so is Nigeria in Britain. Secondly, this goes a long way to show how desperate Buhari can be to achieve his wicked plans. Thirdly, Buhari and all those involved in the Dikko affair must have been very foolish to think they would have succeeded in breaching British security systems. Had they succeeded which was very unlikely, it would have been a slap on her majesty's security services. Lastly this same tactics were used 37 years later in 2021, by the same man to kidnap Nnamdi Kanu from Kenya.
Thank you very much for sharing. Although I was still very young, I remember this incident very well but I didn't have the details as narrated in your insightful video
Nobody should have seen them, while he was taken. That was the mistake. The British protected Dikko to benefit from the billions he stole from Nigeria. What a world.
I read of this incident in my 3rd yr as a law student on diplomatic rekations and paricularly on the inviolability of diplomatic property where this incidence stood out as an exception to the said principle
I know it Sounds insensitive but imagine if this worked we wud have less corruptionin this country now every corrupt politician can run to usa/England but its not possible for there's to run to Nigeria
Its the same buhari. He was a no nonsense person then. His deputy, Tunde Idiagbon was very tough. They tried to sanitize Nigeria of every mess. I think I was in primary six when they took over power
