The rumor that former head of state, Ibrahim Babangida is dead has been debunked by the ex-military dictator who ruled the country from 1985 to 1993.

This is not the first time that the Minna, Niger state born Army General has been rumored to be dead.

In a statement by his spokesman, Kassim Afegbua, the ex-military leader said he’s hale and hearty and that the news about his demise should be totally disregarded.

“It has become consistent fake news for quite some time now wishing our own IBB, the one we easily refer to as the last don of Nigeria politics, dead.

The fake news bill would be a suitable response to this category of fake news carrier.”

The statement further said “Babangida is very much alive and bubbling. He just started attending to friends and associates who came to see him today, Sunday, December 15, 2019 right here at his Minna Hilltop mansion. He is full of life and in his characteristic bubbling mood.

May Allah forgive those who wish Babangida dead.

God is the giver and taker of life, not humans. Death, as the irrevocable end of all creation, will surely come to everyone some day and at the appointed time and hour, but to deliberately spread fake news and wish someone dead, is to take humanity to another bizarre level.

May Allah forgive them,” said the statement.

 

He added that Babangida “by the special grace of Allah, the omniscient and omnipotent one,’’ shall live to fulfil his journey and destiny in life, to the consternation of those who are always wishing him dead, adding this is about the third time this year.

The former military ruler thanked those who took time to reach out to him, home and abroad, to find out the truth.

“We thank you all for your love, care and concern. May Allah grant us all good health, sound mind and long life Amin,’’ he said.
