Abacha, MKO, and IBB took a ride on a helicopter to tour Nigeria 's countryside.
When the helicopter flew by a village, the people rushed out to watch. In a moment of joy, IBB threw a 20 Naira bill out of the helicopter. Turned to the other two and said,
"There will be a very happy Nigerian down there."
Saying nothing, MKO counted 20 one Naira bills and threw them out the chopper. With a broad smile, he said,
"I just made twenty more Nigerians happy."
Then, MKO and IBB looked at Abacha with anticipation.
Abacha grinned and shook his head,
"You two don't understand a thing about Nigeria. I could make 100 million of them happy just by jumping out of this helicopter."
