Thank you for continuing to show interest in the affairs of Nigeria, especially as it concerns the former military dictator, Ibrahim Babangida, whose inept administration plunged Nigeria into its most serious misfortune yet. Still greedy, never satisfied, Babangida wants to return to power. Today, we have an equally destructive dictator attempting to gain absolute power and elongate his rule - President Olusegun Obasanjo. Since our devotion is first to the protection of democracy in Nigeria, we have found a need to weave these two problems into one. Hence, from now on, we will tackle both Generals Babangida and Obasanjo as viruses of democracy in Nigeria.
