Former Military Head of State, Gen. Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida (IBB), has finally spoken after undergoing a successful surgery in Germany.
The ex-military boss said he would soon be home.
IBB, as he’s fondly called told newsmen in a telephone conversation facilitated by former military Head of State, Gen. Abdulsalami Abubakar, when the latter visited Niger State Governor Babangida Aliyu in Minna, the state capital.
DailyPost gathered that Abubakar, shortly after exchanging pleasantries with governor Aliyu, put a call through to Gen. Babangida and put the handset on speaker to enable reporters hear and speak to him.
Gen. Babangida said he would soon return home, but did not specify the exact date.
He said: “I appreciate all those who have expressed concern about my health. I am much better and I will soon return home.”
In his reaction, Aliyu said he was happy when the delegation sent by the state government to check on Gen. Babangida in Germany came home with news that he had “significantly improved”.
He said, “When the team members came back, they told us they had a conversation with him for hours. It was a pleasant information compared to what we heard before”.
