Photoshop very convincing the British Queen will never share that carriage with a foreigner my friend its fake.

That is from the State Visit of IBB as Nigeria's president to the UK in the late 1980's.

So...no photoshop.

Mandela rode in the Queen's carriage too when he visited the UK as South African president in 1996.(pix below).

Why are you so obsessed with GEJ? Which Nigerian president has been offered into the White House for a meeting and dinner apart from GEJ? Una no sabi history well yet moderators rush such an item to front page. Very sad.

That was in 1989. Newsline (Patrick Oke and Yinka Craig) did a special on it at the time. I've forgotten who received President and Mrs Babangida at Heathrow, then they took the train to Victoria Station where the Queen was waiting for them.

Maryam Babangida curtseyed, while the President just shook hands with the Queen. There was the 21 canon salute, then they rode to Buckingham Palace in carriages (The Queen and the President in a carriage, Prince Philip and Maryam in another carriage. Babangida's ministers and other members of his delegation were in other carriages). I remember seeing the ginormous (rotund) figure of Alhaji Abubakar Alhaji in one of the carriages. There were royal salutes (God Save The Queen and Arise O Compatriots) all along the route.

Margaret Thatcher visited Lagos in 1988 and 1989. Prince Philip visited Lagos in 1989 (he laid the foundation stone of Muson Centre in Onikan) and Prince Charles and Princess Diana visited Lagos in 1990 (a few weeks before the Okar Coup).

The more visit the worst they perform for Nigeria.

Why are you so anti-GEJ am sure TO you IBB was a better leader than GEJ,I also think you feel ABACHA was a better leader than GEJ..

Am very sure if GEJ had triggered a civil war you wont have the opportunity to post this..
TODAY you wont go to church to atleast acknowledge your Creator for using GEJ to prevent a civil war, keep on insulting GEJ..

IBB - the most corrupt head of state in Nigerian history.

Are u a learner in 2015?

Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has beaten the record of all time; the most extremely corrupt Nigeria president ever.

Take it or leave it, if Jonathan could be investigated like Abacha family, Chaiii!!!!! Even his Ijaw people would disown him completely.

Nigerians would faint listening to how much Jonathan and his wife have stolen on TV.

He stole Nigeria wealth to stupor.

Have you forgotten the same gesture was offered to our first and only prime minister , Alhaji Tafawa Balewa. The first son of Balewa lived under Queens roof while schooling in UK. No inferiority complex...

You are very correct . Without using EFCC , i can boldly tell the world that GEJ is far corrupt than IBB and Abacha in term of lootings. Imagine someone that spent over 2 trillions for his second term which brought shame to him.
Time will tell.

See how the OP is so excited about this picture. Is he not a drunk fool. We have glorified those who work for others to the detriment of the nation and people are still happy and ready to ask for them to return to power.

At least the OP idiot must agree that Queen Eliza and her people gave him his identity being a N.iger-Arean since 1914.

DAYUUUM


Nooo! I am not excited bruh...

IBB independently wrecked Nigeria on the orders of IMF

Even through the military years of Muritala/OBJ and the destructive politics of second republic and the few dificult months of GMB/Idiagbon ,the Nigerian economy was not so bad and a thriving middle class existed.

IBB introduced dishonesty into the average Nigerian, he was generous to loyalists, he intentionally destroyed the military system for fear of his safety, he introduced Nigeria to large scale drug-running.

He was a true maradona , even Diego would be jealous of his hand of god trickery.

How much was the price of oil per barrel during Babangida compare to Jonathan regime; at a point in Jonathan tenure, it was sold for $150 per barrel and Nigeria accrued more debt than ever before.....


Chaiiiii!!!!! Jonathan has finished us.
