JUST IN: I did not endorse Peter Obi for 2023 Presidency – IBB reacts via politicsngr
Former Military President, Ibrahim Babangida has denied reports that he endorsed Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party for the 2023 general elections.
A Twitter account, General_Ibbro had tweeted on Tuesday that Babangida said he supported the endorsement of Obi by former president Olusegun Obasanjo. The tweet read; “Gen. Olusegun Obasanjo will forever be a true elder statesman and a boss in the military. No serving General in the Nigerian Army today joined the military earlier than 1982. By then, Obasanjo had already finished his military career. I respect him a lot, with his endorsement”.
However, Spokesperson to the former military leader, Prince Kassim Afegbua, when contacted, denied that Babangida endorsed Obi, saying IBB doesn’t have a Twitter account. “It is not true please. Ignore the report of the endorsement. IBB doesn’t have a Twitter handle. If he is going to speak, it will be through a signed statement, not Twitter. Those behind the Twitter statement are liars”.
