About me / Bio:
Umaru Dikko was a Nigerian politician who served as an adviser to President Shehu Shagari and the minister for transportation from 1979 to 1983. He was accused of large-scale corruption and embezzlement by the military regime that overthrew Shagari in 1983. He fled to London and became a vocal critic of the new regime. In 1984, he was the target of a failed kidnapping attempt by Nigerian and Israeli agents who tried to smuggle him back to Nigeria in a crate. The plot was foiled by British authorities at Stansted Airport. He later returned to Nigeria and participated in various political parties and activities. He died in London in 2014 at the age of 77.
