- Weeks before the presidential elections on February 25, General Ibrahim Babangida (retired), the former head of state of Nigeria, left the country.
- Sources close to the former military leader said he is going to Germany for routine medical check-ups.
- It also follows that IBB is trying to avoid getting involved in any kind of drama and controversy that may emanate from the election.
- A part of the politician believes that the absence of IBB and Atiku Abubakar in the country is so that both of them can have a secret meeting abroad, but this is only a suspicion.
One of Nigeria’s former military heads of state, General Ibrahim Babangida, traveled to Germany.
The leadership reports that Babangida was accompanied to Germany on Sunday, January 8, by his second son, Aminu, and a security assistant and is expected to return after the general election.
