Former military dictator, Gen. Ibrahim Babangida (retd.) has endorsed the presidential candidate of the Action Congress of Nigeria, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, and his running mate, Mr. Fola Adeola, describing them as “the pair that the country needs to turn its fortune around.”
Babangida made the statement when he hosted the ACN’s campaign train at his hilltop residence in Minna during the party’s rally in Niger State.
He said that the country needed the youths to assume leadership, adding “I endorse generational change, which Ribadu and Adeola stand for. I have strong faith in them and I believe they can deliver.”
He said, “The fact is that the country needs people of your age to take over the leadership of the country. I believe we have to allow generational change, which the ACN candidate represents.
“I endorse generational change, because the future is for the youth and we have to support them. That is why, I endorse and support Ribadu and Adeola. We have faith in them and we have hope in them.”
Ribadu was accompanied by the National Chairman of the party, Chief Bisi Akande and other chieftains of the party to the residence of the former dictator.
