Nigerians Will Reject One-Party State — IBB by ogododo: 1:05pm On Jan 13

Former Military President, General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida, IBB, has dismissed suggestions that Nigerians will accept a one-party state.

Babaginda, who was Head of State between 1985 and 1993, claimed that a one-party state tends to lead to dictatorship.

He made this known on Friday during an appearance on Channels TV’s Inside Sources with Laolu Akande.

His words: “I have been in a military regime, and the Nigerians I know won’t allow a one-party state. I have been a military man. And I know dictatorship is not good and can’t be good in a civil society.

“Nigerians who I know won’t allow a one-party system and will talk you out of it until you get tired.”

IBB also reiterated his call for a two-party system, stating that it prevents rancour and will save the country a lot of funds and issues associated with a multi-party system.

He said: “Immediately after independence, Nigeria tended to gravitate towards a two-party system. The number of parties formed a coalition to gain power. It happened in the first and second republics. It showed up again in the third republic and the current republic.

“At the time, we believed Nigerians were capable of a two-party system because it saves you a lot of ‘wahala’ and no rancour. You can choose from A or B.”

According to the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, there are 19 registered political parties in the country.

what will happen if there is only one party system? if anybody protests na gunshot

Tinubu will rule till 2031, then he will appoint his anointed candidate and still control the government.. Nigerians know these and thats why they voted for him..

when we are ready for progress as a country, we will know, but for now, lets enjoy this suffering together grin

The man that would have established history by fusing the Nigeria state together under SDP and NRC, but allowed his greed and selfishness to overcome him.

Just break the country up. and let everyone answer his father's name.

Smh. And since then other presidents coming after him couldn't "unlegalised" corruption, huh?

How was the economy of this country under him then compare to now?

No one is suggesting one party system anywhere, if you have any proof paste it here where anyone is canvassing for one party structure.

IBB should leave these corrupt minds and allow them to be playing. One party system is dictatorial, a semi military style of government in which people who are opposed to their heinous plans are intimidated

Lesson for the cassava and agbadorian zombies. The legendary IBB. I remember this man back then in Dodan Barracks as military HOS. We used to line the drive way into state House waving at his convoy.
