Former Military President, General Ibrahim Babangida,
(retd), has promised to continue to offer useful advice to any government in
power.
The former military warlord said he was committed to the
Nigerian project because he had no other country to call his own.
IBB, as he is fondly called, made this declaration yesterday
in Minna, the Niger State capital, when he received the Chairman and members of
the Niger State Working Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
According to him, “I am ready and willing to continuously
offer beneficial advice to the federal and state governments”.
The PDP working committee led by the state chairman of PDP,
Tanko Beji, visited the former Military President at his uphill residence on
his return to the country after a medical check- up.
General Babangida said: ”I am committed to the Project
Nigeria because I have no other country that I can call my own.”
He further called on Nigerians to support governments at all
levels, saying “‘without our support, the governments cannot achieve their
plans for the states and the nation.”
The former military ruler expressed gratitude to the
delegation for finding time to visit him and assured them that he would always
be available when called upon.
Earlier, the leader of the delegation, Beji prayed God to
grant the former military President sound health to serve the state and the
nation longer.
He urged Babangida not to relent in his advisory role, saying “the younger generation is happy to be tapping from your wealth of experience.”
