Former President Olusegun Obasanjo disclosed how the Government of former head of state, the late General Sani Abacha planned to kill him with an injection, but God protected him . He also disclosed how his late friend, General Shehu Yar' Adua was killed in a Port Harcourt Prison. Obasanjo and his former deputy, as head of state, Yar' Adua, were among those who were convicted by a Kangaroo military tribunal for participating in a phantom coup. According to Obasanjo, he was serving his 15 years jail term in Jos before he was transferred to the Yola prison but on the day he was to depart for Yola, he was made to meet a doctor sent to kill him gradually with a lethal injection, but he escaped the trap. According to him, he was told by a warder that a man, whom he later found to be a doctor, came to see him for a medical reasons and said the Abacha government was worried about his health and mandated him to come and check his cholesterol problem. I knew very well that I had no cholesterol problem. I was slightly diabetic and surprisingly, my sugar level had been consistently normal. I told the man firmly that I did not need a blood cholesterol test and that the minor medical problem I had was diabetes. I checked my blood sugar level regularly and I was quite satisfied with my result. Obviously, he did not expect the reaction he got from me. He had to put his syringe and needle back and said to me that later, they would follow up in my new location. He did not happy but there was not much else he could do with me at that junction. As I came to realise later, Shehu Yar' Adua went through the same process, during which he must have been injected with what eventually killed him. I could only attribute the stand I took to the will and guidance of God. i had no premonition or tip-off," he recounted.
