Ex-Military President Babangida
By GARBA MUHAMMAD, Kaduna
The rumour going the round in the country about the purported death of former Military President, Rtd General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida (IBB), has been confirmed to be another hoax.
“The news of the ‘death’ of Oga IBB is not true. We are with him now; he just finished receiving visitors at his Hill Top residence in Minna,” a source in the Hill Top residence confirmed to News Express on Saturday afternoon, May 7, 2022.
“It’s yet another hoax. These are just signs of long life to him,” the source added.
News Express reports that fake news of IBB’s death has become routine. The rumour made the rounds in May last year and resurfaced in January this year.
