Ibrahim Babangida Turns 80 Today! Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida GCFR (born 17 August 1941) popularly known as IBB; nicknamed, "Maradona" or "The Evil Genius", is a retired Nigerian Army general who ruled the Federal Republic of Nigeria from 27 August 1985 until his resignation in August 1993. He served as Chairman of the Armed Forces Ruling Council from 1985 to 1993 and Chief of Army Staff from 1984 to 1985; going on to orchestrate his seizure of power in a palace coup d'ètat against Muhammadu Buhari. He rose through the ranks of the Nigerian Army fighting in the Nigerian Civil War and at various times being involved in all the military coups in Nigeria, before advancing to the full-rank of a General and ultimately as Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces; and as an unelected President and military strongman from 1985 to 1993, ruling for an uninterrupted period of eight years. His years in power, colloquially known as the Babangida Era, are considered one of the most controversial in the military history of the country, and characterized by a burgeoning political culture of corruption in Nigeria, with Babangida and his regime estimated at least 12 billion dollars (23.9 billion today). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ibrahim_Babangida

The Mafia himself. This man Institutionalized corruption and gave out oil blocks to his cronies and boys. He ran a Cartel like government. The “IBB Boys” are the ones currently controlling most of the well known business organizations in the country today and they are also doing well in Politics. One of his loyal boy from the east is being groomed to become President In 2023. 6 Likes |

No birthday to waste. If he didn't cancel the 1993 election (adjudged the fairest election so far in Nigeria), maybe we wouldn't have Bokoharam, Ipob, bandits, etc. Just that act changed the course of Nigeria politics and history. 19 Likes 4 Shares
