Bakare To Mobilise Against Babangida

E-mail Print PDF

Convener of the Save Nigeria Group (SNG) and the Serving Overseer of the Latter Rain  Assembly, Pastor Tunde Bakare, has vowed to mobilise twelve million Nigerians to  campaign against former military dictator, General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida  in the 2011 general elections.

 

Pastor Bakare disclosed this while delivering a lecture titled: “The Interplay of  Religion in the Leadership Failings in Nigeria- Which Way 2011?” at the seventh  annual Adeleke Adejobi Foundation Public Lecture in Lagos.

”If it remains the last drop of my blood, I will resist the candidacy of General  Babangida,” the fiery gospel preacher and social crusader declared.

Bakare vowed that IBB will not be allowed to rule this country again because ”he  annulled the freest and fairest election in the history of the country and now  without feeling remorse about his action, he wants to come back through the back  door and enslave the nation again. We won’t allow that to happen again.”

According to the cleric, the ruling party, PDP, is only a fraction of the country  made up of about three million Nigerians who had managed to teleguide the lives of  the rest of the nation, adding, “the nation has grown wiser now and will no longer  accept corrupt politicians in next year’s elections.”

I will advise those in the general's campaign team to advice him to drop the vision and save the remaining respect that Nigerians have for him. This is because if the head of a church that has millions of Nigerians as his congregations, and millions more as his viewers on national and international TV, can say he will mobilize against the general, then it will take the miracle of David and Goliath to win the presidency.

I will adise pastor Bakare to use his alter to preach to his followers about his religion rather than using old tricky tactics of the so called men of God to interject troubles in the electoral proccesses.If he knows how to govern let him turn his parish into a political movement and stand for election.He has no business accusing anybody.He should be thankful to God that people like Babangida are still around to contribute their political expertise to Nigerian democracy.Beware of false prophets parading on our streets for their selfish gains.

Let's face it - we have all always suspected Ibrahim Babangida of being a drug dealer. The story of Gloria Okon, Dele Giwa's death, the burning of the Ministry of Defence and other stories are all allegedly tied to an official drug ring during IBB's regime. We researched the rumors, and this is what we found.

In an authoritative report still posted on the web site of the Canadian Parliament on the drug trade in Africa, Labrouse marks out Ibrahim Babangida, Nigeria's former self-appointed president, as one of the drug-dealing dictators in Africa. Read more

Dele Giwa, a journalist, was allegedly murdered on the 26 of October 1986 by the former military dictator Ibrahim Babaginda - following damning publications. Close observers of the Nigerian media feared then it was the beginning of harsh military dictatorship in the country. It was a true assessment.

Babangida refused to appear before the duly constituted Oputa panel, giving assorted reasons for his refusal. Ray Ekpu, Giwa's colleague, said: Well, the government may say that the killers have not been found but the killers are known. ...Many Nigerians agree that it was a state sponsored terrorism and that he was assassinated by the state. Read More

Nigeria's military dictatorship, led by General Ibrahim Babangida, annulled the Jun 12 presidential election and canceled plans to return the nation to civilian rule. Britain, the United States and France condemned the latest military takeover and threatened to toughen sanctions against NigeriaAbacha urged all Nigerians to forget the June 12 election.

Lagos lawyer, Gani Fawehinmi, however, said: "June 12 is a symbol of our democracy. It was a day Nigeria and Nigerians without any discrimination whatsoever united in voting Chief MKO Abiola in the freest election in the history of election in Nigeria. ... Read More

Most Nigerian leaders have been corrupt, but Ibrahim Babangida added new, historic elements to corruption. One prime example is what he did with the defunct BCCI Bank. BCCI's activities in Nigeria were so profoundly, overwhelmingly corrupt as to suggest a very significant level of corruption in Nigerian officialdom generally.

Whereas BCCI's activities in most countries merely involved corrupting a few, key people, in Nigeria the corruption was systemic and endemic, and touched nearly every operation of the bank in Nigeria. The bank was operated by Babangida and his friends, including a deposed powerful ruler in northern Nigeria. Read More
