Elections 2015: IBB Endorses Buhari For President In Minna

Former Military President, General Ibrahim Babangida, on Monday declared his support for General Muhammadu Buhari, the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate in the upcoming elections. Speaking while receiving Mr. Buhari who visited him in Minna, Mr. Babangida said ‘’all of us will support you in this course to salvage this country’’.

He said that the APC candidate’s doggedness in sacrificing to salvage Nigeria would not be lost.

“I wish to congratulate members of the party for the honour of nominating my colleague, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, as your presidential candidate in 2015 elections,” he said.

Mr. Babangida had on December 27 called for support for President Goodluck Jonathan when the president visited him in Minna.

“What I will say is simple: The President means well for this country and he is working well for this country. Anybody who means well for this country should support the President to make sure that Nigeria survives as a united country,” he had said.
