However, that arrangement didn\u2019t last long.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite multiple interventions from global leaders, Carter was reportedly the only non-African figure to meet Abacha solely to personally advocate for Obasanjo&#8217;s freedom.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI remain ever grateful to all who worked for my release from Abacha\u2019s prison,\u201d Obasanjo added. &#8220;Although Abacha ensured I remained detained, I was released within a week of his death by his successor, General Abdulsalami Abubakar.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Obasanjo revealed that Carter informed him of media mogul Ted Turner&#8217;s support to secure his release.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCarter told me, \u2018Please see Ted Turner and thank him. He wanted you released and offered to take care of you and your family wherever you chose to live.\u2019 I was deeply moved and visited Ted, who expressed similar sentiments.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a tribute titled &#8220;Jimmy Carter: The Departure of a Titan,&#8221; Obasanjo reflected on the similarities between their lives.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe grew up in a farming family in Plains, Georgia, while I was raised in a rural farming village in Ogun State. We both learned discipline, integrity, and compassion from our parents,\u201d Obasanjo said.<\/p>\n<p>Although both men pursued military careers, they connected further through politics. Obasanjo highlighted Carter&#8217;s humility and dedication to social causes, particularly during the struggle to dismantle apartheid in Southern Africa.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne great lesson I learned from President Carter was his ability to lead by example with humility while inspiring a team that shared his vision. That approach brought him success,\u201d Obasanjo noted.<\/p>\n<p>The former <a
