Former military leader Gen. Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida (retd.) said he stands by statement calling for a “new generation of leaders, according to Mr. Kassim Afegbua.

In a widely-circulated statement, Afegbua quoted IBB as advising President Muhammadu Buhari not to stand for re-election in 2019.

Hours after the statement was released to the media, another statement from Babangida disowned the earlier statement.

But in an interview with ChannelsTV Sunday night Mr Kassim Afegbua said the former president stands by the first statement.

“The former military president authorised the statement I issued. I didn’t just put out the statement on my own,” he said.

He said Babangida wants a new generational set of leaders come 2019.

Birds of the same feather

Buhari and speech plagiarism proliferation. It started since he gave his first speech as president in 2015. Since then he's been doctoring the speeches of others.

Does it mean Bola Tinubu forgot buhari will be only 77 or 86 yrs of age. Short sightedness

So someone somewhere is disclaiming on behalf of IBB against his wish?

Nigerian politics is really filled with desperados.

∆ What's Babangida? what's Buhari? ∆

which kind confusion be this?

Apart from being too old, the score card about this administration within 3yrs is low...buhari's government is an incompetent government swimming in the pool of propaganda.

Afegbua have always been the one releasing press statements for IBB i dont know why this particular one is causing a rift just because IBB said the same thing everybody have been saying.

Apc is a party of propaganda trying to cover shame on the known fact that they have failed.
A party that glorifies in nepotism cannot be supported by any sensible person but sycophants.

Love Speech. Thank you. He is old and inflexible. He can never fit into a pre-structured Nigeria. Therefore, for fareness, experience and forward march, APC should field Osinbajo/Saraki.

Love Speech.

Babangida is a confused soul since 1995 when he "stepped aside" as head of state

he is right

We stand by our resolve that Buhari must go ..He must go , he must go

A country with trillion naira capital base and some 150 million+ human resource, the govt. cannot innovate or create. We need a new generation of leadership....
