Ibrahim Babangida, a former military
president, said that he would not seek any
political post again in Nigeria.
He made the statement on Tuesday,
Novermber 10, in Minna, the NAN reports.
He also said he turned down an invitation
by the PDP for a rebranding conference.
Nevertheless, Babangida said he would
continue to offer his wise counsel to all
politicians towards building a better Nigeria.
“If I called it quit in 2011, why would
PDP contemplate fielding a 78 year-old
man in a presidential election in a
country that parades very vibrant men
and women of lesser age? I have no
intention whatsoever to run for any
office again in Nigeria,” he said.
Babangida further said the invitation by the
PDP would amount to playing partisan
politics, adding that he remained a
statesman.
“While I welcome the invitation to the event
as a mark of respect as one of the founding
fathers, I want to be excused on the grounds
that I have long bid bye to partisan politics.
“Four years ago at an elaborate event at the
Transcorp Hilton Hotels Abuja, I announced
my retirement from partisan politics after
my failed attempt to contest for president,”
he added. https://www.naij.com/633708-wont-seek-political-post-ever-former-president-babangida.html

Dele Giwa taking his revenge slowly...

Whoever took the idea of 2019 re-election to IBB from within PDP is the most stupid person alive. In 2019, IBB will probably be in his 80s. Are they thinking the youths are so daft to continuously allow recycling these old men?

This is no news.
Who killed Dele Giwa?
