Nigeria’s president Muhammadu Buhari has revealed
why he was kicked out of office as a military leader on
August 27, 1985.

Buhari, who was the military head of state for 18
months was kicked out by then Chief of Army Staff,
Maj. Gen. Ibrahim Babangida.

Speaking in an interview with The Interview Magazine,
Buhari said IBB overthrew him because he was fighting
corruption.

“ I learnt that Gen. Ali Gusau, who was in charge of
intelligence, took an import licence from the Ministry of
Commerce, which was supplies, and gave it to Alhaji Mai Deribe. It was worth N100, 000, a lot of money then.

“When I discovered this, I confronted them and took the
case to the army council. Gen. Malu was the Chief of
Defence Staff; Gen. Babangida was the Chief of Army Staff; Tunde Idiagbon was the Chief of Staff, Defence
Headquarters and I was the Head of State.

“I said if I didn’t punish Gusau, it would create a problem
for us. It is North versus South; majority versus minority; Muslim versus Christian. That was what it showed.

“So, I said Gen. Ali Gusau had to go. He was the Chief of
Intelligence. That was why Babangida got some officers to remove me. Let him repeat his own story. Ali Gusau is still alive.”

Speaking on the 2016 budget fiasco, the President said
he would ensure that such budget padding would never
happen again.

He also slammed critics who accused him of not having
an economic team.

Buhari said; “What do they mean by team? The Vice-
President heads our Economic Management Team. You
have a finance minister, a budget and planning minister; a minister of trade and industry and investment; a governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, a national economic adviser and others and yet some people still ask for a team.

“We will listen to everybody but we are averse to economic teams whose private sector members frequently steer government policy to suit their own narrow interests rather than the overall national interest.”

We know before say IBB DIRTY PASS USED SANITARY TOWEL!

But the unforgivable aspect is their sabotaging the natural growth processes and natural evolution towards balanced Self-Determination ethics of the Nigerian Sovereign Nation State, her people and unborn generations!

Look at the mess they've engendered for us now? The so-called Juntas, Mafias & all their Maradona Evil Genius jingoism? Can the Cabal of "Army Generals" (IBB, T.Y DANJUMA, OBJ, PMB etc) be ecstatic about the present day Nigeria?

With their non-corrective coups and being manipulated by politicians and petty objectives, they were no better than thieves because even mercenaries were better than them.

IBB shuld jst hurry up and die already instead of continuously stinking up the place!
