Hehehe..okoooo.....Contrary to widespread belief that former Military President, Gen. Ibrahim Babagida has fully thrown his weight behind the candidature of the All Progressives Congress presidential Candidate, Gen. Muhammad Buhari, IBB, as he is fondly called, has said he has endorsed all the 14 presidential candidates for the February 14 presidential election.
According to IBB, this endorsement goes beyond his earlier endorsement of President Goodluck Jonathan and shortly afterwards, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Major-General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd).

Babangida, disclosed this while speaking at a talk show on Channels TV. He however placed a caveat to his endorsement for all the candidates saying that he is yet to read their plans for the country.
When asked by the presenter of the programme, Ms. Kadaria Ahmed, if he had thrown his weight behind Jonathan, Babangida said “I did allude to that. I said I found him as someone who has a very strong belief about the unity of this country.
“So what I said is that the president believes in the unity of this country and any other person who believes in the unity of this country should support the president to keep the country one,” he said.
Continuing, Babangida said as far as the presidential election was concerned, all the 14 presidential candidates had his blessing.
“The only difference and I did mention it, is that I have not been able to read what they have to offer to this country and I am going to do that. Whoever offers what I was looking forward to I will cast my vote,” he said
