When a terrified Ibrahim Babangida was almost killed by coup plotters on April 22, 1990, it was Sani Abacha who saved the life of the Commander-in-Chief and fought the coup plotters to the very end.

This sealed the pact of friendship between Babangida and Abacha, and he (Babangida) made Abacha a full four-star General later that year.

It had never happened before in Nigerian history for an active military officer to be a full General with an incumbent Head of State.
