Jonathan Visits Babangida To Celebrate His 84th Birthday by okrote4real(op): 9:19am On Aug 18, 2025
Former President Goodluck Jonathan on Sunday paid a courtesy visit to former Military President, General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida (IBB), in Minna, Niger State, to celebrate his 84th birthday.

Jonathan, who described IBB as a “great and visionary leader,” commended his contributions to Nigeria’s political development and national unity. He noted that Babangida’s leadership style and enduring influence remain an inspiration to younger generations of politicians and statesmen.

The former president prayed for God’s continued blessings upon the elder statesman, wishing him good health and strength. He also emphasized the importance of celebrating leaders who have played significant roles in shaping Nigeria’s history.

Jonathan’s visit added to the series of goodwill messages and tributes pouring in from across the country as Babangida marked the milestone age.

Life is really transient and ephemeral. Look how the once mighty and gallant general has been confined to a wheel chair.
Truly, time is an effector.
Happy birthday to him.

It's not an ordinary birthday visit. It's political consultation.

LOL. South south and South east never for once like anything APC and you and I know that. That’s peter Obi base. What’s happening here is GEJ looking to split both the SS/SE votes with Obi and then splitting the traditional northern PDP/Atikus vote while APC retain their SW and NW zone while stealing little votes from others base. SMH

This same life where some people are born into prosperity and affluence and some others are born into abject poverty and live in poverty all their life? Where some people spend up to 50 years in jail for a crime they're innocent of? Where some people currently have billions of naira in their bank accounts while others work through their nose to afford their next meal? No, life is not vanity. Life is a very serious affair.

Even if you like say 1 million media crew and photographer, the pictures shown won't be more than the one we saw above.
Ok Jonathan didn't went with media crew or photographer, how did we get to know of this news and pictures?

This should tell you tribal politics is weak politics. I have been saying this for long, when they want to embezzle there’s no tribe. But most of you who know nothing carryover tribal hatred to your unborn generations….

Nothing concerns NIGERIANS,whom he dribble so much, yet because of African AGREED IN HIS BLOOD- HE REUSED TO HAND OVER TO THE CIVILIANS!
THE EVIL GENIUS ' SHOULD CONTINUE TO ENJOY HIMSELF,AFTER HE CANCELLED THE BEST ELECTIONS OF June12,1993 - UNDER PRETENCES that he wants to Step Aside' by plunging Nigeria into chaos, burning, Corruption of the highest order - where $80Billions ( Dollars were Spent,but No Elections, afterall.
He is just one of those Former African Leaders like Mobutu of Zaire ,etc.
Today,he has a University for Himself-ha e you seen any American or European leaders with a University but only in Nigeria or African!
