President Muhammadu Buhari has sent warm felicitations to former military President, Gen. Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida on his 79th birthday.
Babangida, who toppled Buhari in a military coup in 1985, will be 79 tomorrow, 17 August.
He ruled Nigeria between 1985 and 1993 and went down in history to have annulled the freest election ever conducted in Nigeria.
In a statement signed by Femi Adesina, special adviser on media, Buhari joined Babangida’s family, friends and associates to celebrate the military president.
“As the former military leader turns a new age, the President believes his services to the country will always be remembered”, Adesina said..
“President Buhari prays that the Almighty God will continually strengthen Gen. Babangida, grant him good health and longer life”.
