I'm not part of IBB's celebration. He's one of those that kept this country in this deplorable condition. Everyone must come to judgement before God at the appointed time.

God bless the General who built the 3rd Mainland bridge(Other projects too numerous to mention.....https://www.nairaland.com/5364387/which-nigerias-leader-match-ibbs ) ...... God bless the General who made Abuja what it is today(The legacies are as loud as decibels) ....... God bless the Grand Master of Infrastructure, creator of employment through the creation of the highest number of ministries and agencies....... God bless the General for an all inclusive Government and Governance....... God bless the General who ruled in uniform democratically(we had civilian governors)..... Let me stop here...... God bless the Gentle, Great and Intelligent General Ibrahim(My first name) Badamosi Babangida(My Son's Name). May you live longer. Amin

and may be too you would have been ?

Happy birthday to my able General BADAMASI IBRAHIM BABANGIDA. Your legacies to make Nigerian remain united is still unmatched till this generation, most especially the 3rd Mainland bridge, the dualization of Abuja to Kano road, Benin, Asaba Onitsha road, etc, etc & notably making Abuja the Federal Seat of Power instead of Fragile Lagos are too many to mention sir. May Allah continue to guide & protect you with long life in health & blessing. Amin!

BAD MOUTH

This crook looks 98. Babangida your reward is in hell

Reference:


Your history is obviously dodgy and the realities are a bit far from the truth. In the first place it is the Indigenization policy of the Murtala administration that started the exodus of foreign interests in Nigerian industry. In the heydays of apartheid everything foreign was labelled colonialist, racist, fascist and they were nationalised or subtantially indigenised with obvious consequences.

Bythe time IBB came to power it was all gone. Industries that were lost during his regime were purely resulting from economic factors primarily due to the weakening of the purchasing power of the average Nigerian.

Also my take on the other economic missteps is simple. Yes he weakened the naira. This was to reduce the stress on the foreign exchange market which in princiole is to discourage imports and spur local industry but he failed to realise that the average Nigerian is lazy and prefers a quick ride to prosperity and so will not make anything he needs.

This hasn't changed till today. We are still poor, lazy and an unproductive nation of people who live far beyond their means. You cannot blame IBB alone for a cultural position.

yet when Nigerians move out legitimately they excel. How lazy they truly are in your submission

Happy birthday, may u leave long to face all the consequences u put Niger,thief .

Babangida baba mutumu

ahmg001:
people lyk u re d reason y we cant make a meaning progress in Nigeria.it still beats my imagination dat a nigerian youth can be defending IBB,so pathetic

what do you mean? How can IBB grandchild be against his grandfather. Won't you do the same if you were in his shoes

AngelicBeing:
Amen, IBB is already a dead carcass, the same applies to Buhari and all others that raped the destiny of Nigeria, the pictures below is for all of them

this assertion is not always true. I have seen bad people enjoy till their last day on Earth. What happened here? Or will they be served in the federal republic of underworld?

Who killed Dele Giwa?

itsme01:



Maradona!! Happy Birthday to the cunniest man ever
*The only guy with the manual on how to tame and arrest General Buhari for almost 4 years, denied him access to his sick mum till she died and caused the divorce between him and sefinatu his first wife, froze all his accounts and denied him pension there by turning him back to an herdsmen... all without any consiquencies,
*The grand patron of instituitionalise corruption in all Nigerian Ministry and Agencies, with bribe and contract kickbacks done openly
*The most Generous Niger Delta oil rig donater, he even gave alakija his wife's tailor(alleged concubine), abiola his bossom friend and Adenuga his brilliant business mole
*The man who made his childhood friend face firing sqaud for an unproven coup allegation, and denied Abiola his loyal friend and finacer of his many coups the chance to govern
*The guy who sent a letter bomb to blow up Dele Giwa for daring to investigate and publish his wife's link with an international drug trade


Babangida was a chop make i chop guy and everybody thought wow what a nice guy until structural adjustment program scattered Nigerian economy till date, he also canceled ministry of trade and commerce from handling sales of Agricultural program unbehalf of farmers who cant trade abroad, and that singular move colapsed farmers, life till date.. as rural farmers cant grow cocoa, dry the bean and still be sadle with looking for european buyers or middle men who rips them off same as oil palm , cotton and grandnut farmers.



..

More like a tip of the iceberg of his atrocities.
The funny and usual thing about life is that A SENILE ROUGE like IBB can still live for 20 more years without serious health issues just like obj while the fair and good ones or with good intentions are long dead and gone.

THE DICTATOR WHO DESTROYED NIGERIA.

HAD IBB NOT OVERTHROWN BUHARI, NIGERIA TODAY WILL BE A BETTER COUNTRY.

IT WAS DURING IBB's REGIME THAT THE NAIRA LOST RECOVERY AGAINST THE DOLLAR AND BRITISH POUNDS.

IT WAS DURING IBB's REGIME THAT CORRUPTION BECAME A NORMAL THING AND WAS CELEBRATED. HE LEGALIZED WIDE SPREAD LOOTING THAT NIGERIANS NICKNAMED HIM ' MARADONA'.

WHO KILL DELE NA BABA IF YOU SAY NGIDA NA YOU SABI.

AllenSpencer:


Did you try to be funny.

10,000 years from now, your lineage will "NEVER" be worthy to sit on same table where "ANY" Ibrahim Babangida lineage sits.

PLEASE stop being a d0lt even though you are the one cleaning up his shlts in his vegetable state.
It will never be well with Ibrahim Babangida no matter how much he has left.

IKERE GORGE DAM, A BLESSING TO OUR GENERATION.

Ikere is a town located in Iseyin Local Government Area of Oyo State Nigeria.
It is about 28km North East Iseyin. The town is a home to the popular Ikere Gorge Dam. It is located on the Ogun river with a reservoir capacity of about 690 million m3.

I have visited the Ikere Gorge Dam on more than three occasions, the last time I visited the Dam was 12th of August, 2019 which is the second day of Eid Al-Adha (Festival of Sacrifice).
The trip was led by the Hon. President of Iseyin Youth Development Group (IYDG) in person of Hon. Babajide Oniyo, Hon. Shina Peller, my humble self Sakariyau Tijani Sheu (Sheubaba) and the entire members of IYDG.
The theme of this year program was "Convergence season 3/ Developmental Tour". We paid a visit to the Ado Awaye Iyake suspended lake and later proceeded to Ikere George Dam both in Iseyin LGA.
Iseyin Youth Development Group (IYDG) aim is the way forward for the development of Iseyin, Oke Ogun and the entire Nigeria at large, therefore Ikere George Dam must not be abandoned. Charity begins at home.

A Dam is a barrier that stops or restrict the flow of water or underground stream. -Wikipedia
Some Dams are constructed to change the direction of river water flow into channel, canal, pipeline etc.

George is a narrow valley between hills or mountains typically with steep rocky walls and a stream running through it.
The term is obtained from the French word "Gorge" which means throat or neck. A George is often smaller than Canyon, although both can be used to describe deep, narrow valleys with a stream or river running along their base.

Ikere Gorge Dam has been abandoned for so long. It is the second largest Dam in Nigeria, but it has been a long forgotten dream.
The Ikere Gorge Dam was first established by the Military regim of Ex President Olusegun Obasanjo and it was set up in 1983 by the then administration of Alhaji Shehu Shagari.
Ikere Gorge Dam was initially planned to generate 6 Megawatts of Electricity.

Furthermore, Dam can also supply water for Iseyin, Iganna, Okeho, Lagos etc.
Among the the plans was also for Irrigation purpose of about 12,000 hectares of land. According to findings, some equipments has been purchased as at then by the Government, they has been kept at the site for the Hydro Power component of the Dam and has not yet been installed.
According to experts the project will take up to 3 to 4 months to be completed.

Ikere Gorge Dam can be developed for aquaculture, I even bought some fishes on our way back from the site visitation. It can create over 1,500 jobs for the youths, production capacity of over one million tonnes of fish annually if fully utilized.

There is no mobile network in the area, we are unable to make or receive calls throughout the visitation.

The 35km access road that lead to the Dam is appalling, the road need to be fixed for easy access.

Conclusively, we the Iseyin Youth Development Group (IYDG) on my humble behalf are calling on the Federal Government of Nigeria to put the Ikere Gorge Dam in good shape for the purpose of Hydro power generation, Irrigation, aquaculture etc.
At the other hand the government should also harness the tourism potential of the Ado-Awaye Iyake suspended lake which is the second suspended lake in the world after the Colorado suspended lake in the USA.
"I am convinced that Nigeria would have been a more highly developed country without the oil. I wished we had never smelled the fumes of petroleum" -Prof Wole Soyinka.
God bless Iseyin, God bless Nigeria.

Ikere Gorge Dam! The second largest Dam in Nigeria.
Ikere Gorge Dam! The time is now.
Ikere Gorge Dam! No more further delay
Ikere Gorge Dam! The untapped blessing
Ikere Gorge Dam! A blessing to our generation
Ikere Gorge Dam! A gift from God Almighty

Bring the attention of the state Govt to this

The crook himself.mouth like benin ore expressway

The IBB who with Abacha turned Nigeria upside down through ultimate proliferation of too many undue number of 19 states + Abuja in one northern region, but created only 17 states in the two southern regions.

In the process, IBB and Abacha made northern region controlled mostly by Hausa/Fulani to become like veto power holders in Nigeria.
Land mass or population is not used as criterion to consider where or how many new federating units like states can be created in any region of a country formed by different regions.

There should have been more states in the two southern regions that in one northern region.

Alas, Nigeria must break, let's see how far north shall not become the losers.

Nothing last forever,I have only one prayer for him May Almighty God judge him the same ways he judged Nigerians.lo ba tan.

Spatta:
If only these Kids on Nairaland Knows this evil man. Babangida was the one who single handedly led Nigeria on this path of poverty. the Nation is yet to recover


Talk about Evil, This is the Man. very few people still remember the wickedness of this evil genus
THEY wiped out History so YOU all will not recollect and the ignorant are saying Happy Birthday to an evil man

Ibrahim Gbadamosi Babangida. I thought you are bigger than God but your look then and now has thought me that human are dust and they will surely return to dust. I remember a colleague that died during the protest at igbona market in Osogbo and many more as a result of June 12 protest.

Where are presidents in year
1719
1819
and 1919
If we can remember where our soul will be resting in year 2119, l think humans we step gently. My prayer is that God should forgive you all our sin, witness many more years and may we not have a president like you in this nation again.

OLD AGE A SIGN OF THE ON-COMING DEPARTURE TO ACCOUNT UNTO THE KING OF THE UNIVERSE. LIFE DOESNT END HERE, LETS BE CAREFUL.
