NIGERIA'S former Military President, retired General Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida, has spoken from Germany where he has been in the last few weeks.



IBB, as he is fondly called, said he is alive contrary to reports that he had passed on.

MEZIE TIMES had quoted a family source recently, saying that the former military ruler was hale and hearty.

Babangida, speaking on a Television Continental programme on Wednesday, said he would soon return home.

The Lagos-based television programme, Journalists Hangout, was where Babangida called into to dispel the rumour of his death.

He told TVC crew: “I am alive.”

As at press time, journalists were still laying siege to his Hilltop Mansion in Minna, Niger State for news on his whereabouts.

Update from his hiltop mansion

In a bid to further dismiss the rumour tha‎t former Military President, General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida, has died, his Personal Assistant, Captain Jalingo, on Wednesday said the gap toothed General is expected in Nigeria on Sunday.

Jalingo, while addressing journalists who had laid siege to the Hilltop Mansion area on Wednesday waiting for Babangida’s arrival, said: “General is alive.”

According to him: “He is supposed to be back today (Wednesday), but he did not come.

“General Babangida is alive.


“Insha Allah, he will be back on Sunday.

“If IBB comes back, there would be a press briefing that same day or the following day.

“He will address the media.”

Does his death changes anything? Please, let the toothed General be!

In a race to be first to break the news of IBBs death Sahara Reporters and the rest hv already pronounced him dead.
What I don't understand is why the race to be first to report someone's death...bizarre!

Even if a dog live like an iroko tree he will one day be sacrificed to the gods....


They sold this nation to poverty... And some one is saying insha Allah.... Anyway God is a merciful God, but I would you confess ur sins and share ur looted wealth among the poor, if not, you will not know rest....awon ika eniyan

Not for long . Babaginda's death would signify the beginning of the end of corruption. And when he dies, the FG might be able to sweep in on some of his loot, just the way, it was done for abacha.
