I bet that nobody who witnessed Babangidas coup, and how unpopular it was, ever thought they will praise him for doing so at some point in the future... Everybody thought he simply toppled Nigerias Jerry Rawlings just to become a president..

When these guys chased this man away in 1985. .., the coup was so unpopular because of the so called fight against corruption led by Idiagbon.. So much so, that many hoped Babangida will be toppled and Buhari returned to power..

Take a look at what is happening today and you will know why God doesn't answer some prayers sometimes... It took Babangida months to consolidate power and if he wasn't a shrewd manipulator, he could easily have been eliminated as many people felt he toppled a "progressive, corruption fighting, egalitarian government" of Buhari! How wrong we are!

There's nationwide jubilation when Buhari's military government was overthrown by IBB mainly because of human rights abuses, inflation & poor economic policies.

@Vaughanlanrewaj,your submission,I must admit ,is one of the best I've seen since I joined NL. In terms of content and form. At times,NL is bereft of sound responses. At other times,there's the dearth of sound judgement on the part of responders. The likes and shares some imbecilic comments garner here make me shriek at times.
You're one of those who see military rule or intervention as evil. There's no way military rule can erode even the worst of legal governments. Because, military rule is illegal, unconstitutional and irresponsible. That said,Dogoyaro would still be regarded as an accident of history,part of the coterie of irresponsibles,who plunged Nigeria into an endless abyss of economic,social and political decadence. Throughout history,I'm yet to see where military rule bettered the lives of a people.Well,maybe in Ghadaffi's Libya.But it came as at a price- Libya became a dispersal agency of some sort for terrorists and international criminals.

Thank you for your kind words sir. God bless you sir.

How I wish you ended him once and for all...

But nevertheless, we celebrate you even in Death...

I know for sure that Buhari Media Cow's (BMC's) scattered all over this forum will do a backflip and go into wild celebration with this news.
