I’ll Run In 2007, If. . . — Babangida

This interview is generally pointless outside of giving relevance to irrelevants like Babangida. He was incoherent throughout even went as far as blamed Nigerians for the June 12 imbroglio.
 I hope the press will stop giving him platform.



I’ll run in 2007, if. . . — BABANGIDA

GENERAL Ibrahim Babangida, former military President, remains one man who means many things to different Nigerians. Some see him as forthright, others believe  he is full of tricks and deceit, such that he was once branded an “evil genius”. For obvious reasons, he is highly admired by many people, but at the same time bashed  steadily by those who did not, and still do not cherish his style. Strikingly, he takes both commendations and condemnations in his stride. Of recent, he has been  unusually quiet, perhaps because as he said, he needed that “golden silence.” He is one of those touted to have an eye on the 2007 presidency, eventhough in his  characteristic manner, he has never made a definite pronouncement to run against the incumbent President should the third term gambit succeed. Hard as journalists  tried, there was a thick wall built around his fortified hilltop home in Minna. That imaginary wall was shattered, Wednesday night when he faced some select editors at  his Minna residence.
