And one school of thought will want me to believe that the worst civilian rule is better than the best military regime.

He did all these in 8 years, paid fuel subsidy, maintained a good dollar to naira exchange and paid pension/ salary to workers.

But after 24 years of democracy, we are worst of as a nation.

*COPIED.

Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida GCFR (born 17 August 1941) is a Nigerian retired general and statesman who served as military president of Nigeria from 1985 until his resignation in 1993. He rose through the ranks to serve from 1984 to 1985 as Chief of Army Staff; going on to orchestrate his seizure of power in a coup d'état against Muhammadu Buhari.

Our kids weren't told he did all the above...so sad.

Democracy is a curse to Africa...Obasanjo, Jonathan and Buhari combined couldn't achieve half of what Ibrahim Babangida achieved in just 8 years.

He is the best leader Nigeria ever had.

Parachoko:
Please stop overhyping IBB and The Construction of 3rd Mainland Bridge was started by Gowon.

All what you listed there are nothing sef dey are just Paperweight Achievement.

Just like Buhari, IBB left Nigeria in a worst Situation than he met it.

You just proved how ignorant you are...you sure sey you go school so? I don't understand how someone can be so ignorant yet boastful.


seun Mynd44 OAM4J nlfpmod lets educate those who have zero knowledge about this elder statesman that deserves to be celebrated irrespective of our political affiliation...it's still his birthday month at 82.

IBB tried o

This is front page worthy, not all those overhyped APC Tinubu propaganda machine

OP, what you listed are regular project that you can find in any Nigeria budget be it during military or civilian regime.

When you look critically those elephant projects are only drain on Nigeria economy with exception his DIFFRI and Better Life initiative

What we have now is stealing and stealing.
For almost 30 years of democracy they can't create even one local government.
Budget in trillions but nothing to show.

Funny Enough, Gen SANI ABACHA achieved more than him.🤔🙂

During Abacha's time, We had the most Stable Economy in Nigera's History.🙂

Obasanjo Tried even though, Inflation Kickstarted in his administration.🤨

But you see Buhari and the Current Druggie of the USELESS party called APC,
Both are Glorified FAILURES! 😏🙁

So what then did Ebola build in our former federal capital aside taxing people to death in the name of increased igr?

Any bridge in his name?

Any project he started and completed??

Just like IBB, Jonathan Performed woefully.

People have varying opinions. But Babangida was majorly viewed as corrupt just like Abacha and many other politicians we have in the present day.

Nigeria's economy took a nose dive under IBB right from the when he took over government. The tragedy of Nigeria began in 1986 when we did the structural adjustment programme. The policy was abused. Even the Gulf war oil windfall could not revive the dead economy.

The policy aggravated rather than improve the adverse economic condition of the country. For instance, there was massive inflation, and Nigeria’s external debt more than quadrupled between 1986 and 1989. The privatization and commercialization of Government corporations caused tariff hike, and increase in the production and optimal cost of firms. As a result many small firms wound out of business.

The anti-sap riots contributed to IBB later on reliquinshing power c/w the 1993 election riots which he annulled.

During the anti-sap riots, 150 Nigerian students of various higher academic institutions lost their lives.

Just like IBB, Jonathan Performed woefully.

👍

How about Buhari, because I know you as an APC supporter? 😏😒

What of the 4 refineries built by the military gvrnt, the so called messianic civilian gvrnt can not mentain


I pray that the junta's shud take over Nigerian gvrnt by fire by force

One of Nigeria's greatest leaders. If not the greatest of them all.

Theunbothered, Ayo2004. IBB was criticized by so many like you but when ever he gives his critics an opportunity to serve and prove their words, they fail woefully.

A very good example is Prof. Taye Solarin. He couldn't even manage a ordinary bank meant for the masses, PEOPLE'S BANK. An advocate for the well being of the poor failed Babangida's test.

What about Wole Soyinka? and lots more.

Most people who criticize our leaders will fail woefully when given a minute portion to manage.

Lol.. but some people will alway look for who to blame for their inefficiency. Babangida is not the reason you are living a miserable life.

Point to one infrastructure today that Babangida is not a part of it. Is it Abuja? Third mainland bridge? I can go on and on. Babangida is the one that practically built Nigeria infastructurally, and institutionally.

Till date, the election he conducted is still the best of them all. Food for thought.

I can bet you that majority of Nairalanders (the under 30 year olds) don't know these facts.
That's why they yap about worst "democracy" being better than the best military rule.
If only they know!

Sani Abatcha and IBB arr the best presidents Nigeria ever had if we put sentiment aside

Almost all the infrastructure that we are still using in this country was done by the military regime. Aside Telecom, what has democracy done for the people aside looting, nepotism, massive corruption and death.

Keep in mind that oil was about $20 -$30 per barrel throughout IBB's rule.
Only a brief period during the gulf war of 1990/91 did oil cross $40 per barrel.

But since civilian rule oil has stayed above $40 per barrel.
Now compare and contrast!

Any project he started and completed??

Construction of Adeola-Odekun


Dualisation of Mende Link Road.


Kudirat Abiola Way in Ikeja and Akin adesola in Eti-Osa were upgraded to dual carriageway.
