IBBFormer military president, General Ibrahim Babangida, has congratulated the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) General Muhammadu Buhari, describing the APC candidate’s victory at the polls as a deserved one.

Gen. Babangida, in a statement, explained that General Buhari’s success after several attempts demonstrates perseverance, hardwork and consistency.

He stated; “General Buhari lives true to his military calling by remaining very consistent, resilient and courageous right from 2003 till date. This enviable feat to me further enriches our democratic process.”

He emphasised that the outcome of the presidential election indicates that an incumbent can be defeated in an election if the people’s aspirations are not fulfilled.

IBB also praised President Goodluck Jonathan for his congratulatory message to the president-elect, describing the president’s action as cheery news.

Gen. Babangida, however, challenged the president-elect to live up to the expectations of many Nigerians that crave for change, as well as reach out to other contestants in the election in the spirit of one Nigeria.
