On August 17, 2020,former head of state of Nigeria, Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida will clock 79. Babangida's regime brings back memories of SAP (Structural Adjustment Program), SFEM(Second-Tier Foreign Exchange Market), MAMSER(Mass Mobilization for Self Reliance, Social Justice, and Economic Recovery) , June 12, Better life program by his late wife, Gideon Orkar/Ogboru coup and so much that happened in his 8 years rule. Some of his great achievements include completion of the 3rd mainland bridge and creation of states like The states are: Katsina and Akwa Ibom created September 23, 1987, and Abia, Delta, Enugu, Jigawa, Kebbi, Osun, Kogi, Taraba and Yobe – all of which were created on August 27, 1991. At the very least, those states can never forget IBB. However, his annulment of the June 12 elections still lives a bad taste in his records til date. happy birthday General. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olHeb4LonHg 1 Like

Reminiscent time ........ We remembered vividly just like yesterday, Let's take you down memory lane, Especially those that weren't born back then. Enjoy......... Following the 1983 military coup d'état, General Babangida (then Chief of Army Staff) started scheming to overthrow military head of state General Muhammadu Buhari. Exploiting his closeness with allies: Sani Abacha, Aliyu Gusau, Halilu Akilu, Mamman Vatsa, Gado Nasko, and younger officers from his days as an instructor in the military academy (graduates of the NDA's Regular Course 3), he strategically positioned his allies and gradually within the military hierarchy. The execution of the coup was initially delayed due to General Tunde Idiagbon the 6th Chief of Staff, Supreme Headquarters and ruthless second-in-command to General Muhammadu Buhari. On 27 August 1985, General Babangida and his co-conspirators orchestrated the palace coup with four Majors: Sambo Dasuki, Abubakar Dangiwa Umar, Lawan Gwadabe, and Abdulmumini Aminu detailed to arrest the head of state. In a speech, General Babangida justified the coup describing General Muhammadu Buhari's military regime as "too rigid". Not that he was corrupt, Not that he was doing any wrong thing. But just that he was so bent to enforce discipline in all sphere of our nation, Along with Tunde Idiagbon, Just that he arrested some politicians that started looting in this nation and lock them behind bars. And this took back the progress of Nigeria 60 years! One day, we will get there as a nation. There was a country!! Kissiemu:You've said it all! We can only continue to remain positive about our darling nation. ONE day, We will get there as a nation. The foundation has been destroyed. Danielfx:What do kids know? 8 Likes 3 Shares |

![]() Maradona. Rumoured to have a Yoruba dad like some say OBJ's dad is Igbo. It's unlikely he's really from Niger State anyways. He has no iota of love for the place. He and Abdulsalam are very useless ex Presidents/ Head of States. My fridge and A.C. were useless because of zero electricity. They have very bad roads too. 3 Likes 4 Shares |

Happy birthday to him. If you think its imossible to get profit from forex everyday, monday to friday, chat me up. If you think you'll get these profits and still lose them due to the nature of forex, let me prove otherwise. Just chat me up. If you've lost money and hope in forex, this is for you, chat me up. Pls note, I don't teach forex, but you can learn from a world class trading company if you want. I'm not charging you a dime for this information. I'm simply showing you an opportunity. It's up to you to decide whether you like it or not. After all the first sign of most scams on Nairaland is a fee for some info. But this is totally free so what do you have to lose? Nothing. |
