39:35 Peter Obi is definitely admired by all of us.
This is IBB stylishly talking about him! He is the good Nigerian, travels, economist and 60 years old.
Let everyone pray for Obi to lead this UNITED NIGERIA to it’s best days yet 🙏
Such impunity. I've not heard this man express one single regret or remorse for his part in plunging the country into the darkest abyss that we may never limb out of.
Don't mind him
So true
He’s suffering for his atrocities. Forget camera he’s very sick treating all
Kinds of diseases
Stay there dey complain. You expect him to apologize for sins he committed many years ago, but Buhari has not apologize for the sins he is committing now.
He is planning of Staging a coup for Peter Obi. This i have seen.
The problem with Africa is that we celebrate thieves. Allow them to keep their loot and be treated as statesmen, heroes instead of villain deserving the harshest punishment and to be treated with contempt. IBB and many corrupt and ruthless African leaders shouldn’t be allowed to keep their loot. Letting them keep is setting bad precedents, it confirms that crime pays. This is our biggest problem in Africa. A thief is a thief and it doesn’t matter whether they have stolen a goat, chicken, robbed citizens of public resources, are a villager, an ex president, young or old. They must be punished in equal proportion to the crime committed and deprived of the stollen goods or wealth so that leaders coming after them are warned. I don’t consider IBB a hero and sad that many here are praising him. May God the almighty, Allah open our eyes as citizens to the filths committed by men like him impoverishing this continent

IBB doesn't qualify as a hero. There's nothing heroic about him.
Infact, he's a major factor in the continuous struggle for nationhood. He created more problems than he solved (if any).
His Maradonic postures is inimical to the peace and stability of Nigeria.
He legalized many illegalities. He's therefore, a criminal that ought to be brought to book.
.
I quite agree with you and that is the system in the Western world. Look ex-president Trump, regardless of he acclaimed wealth, he is been invested for instigating violence in America including his cabinet and all senators, representatives and everyone suspected of affiliating with him. America will tell you that "Nobody is above board" but in Nigeria, political criminals are being called Godfather and celebrated. What a shame.
Q
Judgement awaits the wicked no matter how long they thrive. The wicked will never go unpunished. God has set a day he will judge the World 🌎
Amen
He babangida will die painful death. Most of these irreversible corruption became prominent during his time.
He knows how we got to this point as he put us here
Exactly
I don't think so
He keeps going round the question
@@ifeomaogoegbunam6784 ź
Ibb ... the maradona.
IBB speaks as one whose past obligations in Nigeria were those of a political analyst and not of an ex-president. The military men in Nigeria were rare in terms of impacting the lives of the common Nigerian. IBB annulled a democratic process in June 12 1993 elections . A man who gave license to corruption and tries to justify his own graft by highlighting the immense corruption of current political class only shows an ex-president who refuses to be held accountable as a public servant. He is not an intelligent man but a profound thief.
one thing is sure... the alleged/perceived corruption of his nothing compared to what is obtainable since the so called democratic dispensation... That I give for free..
@@collinschiazor6568 You are very correct. Nigerian democratic govt is very corrupt even more than the military govt.
@@hakeemojulari7392 he is the originator of evil in Nigeria with many colours
Depends on what you term as intelligence Mr
@@collinschiazor6568 They are equally as guilty as one another. In ethical parlance, you don't say one person is eviler than another. What happened to the $12 billion dollars gulf war windfall?
All hail IBB🙋♂️, the man who knows Nigeria like the palm of his hands. Smartest thief of all times and the most corrupt leader in Africa
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
🤣🤣🤣 EMOTIONAL DAMAGE 😂🤣
you got it all well! the news Magazine Newswatch called him the Evil Genius
Dose evil men are just seeking for forgiveness don't mind him
Loo l
The lady interviewer is very good. Right questions and waited enough for him to answer the questions - again am very impressed with IBB ‘s. articulation and presence of mind despite being 80 yrs. It’s a shame that life is transient and we don’t have to live forever. Nothing last forever not even an IBB.
Very good. You must be a joker. This same lady that portrays him a hero in some respect and fails to ask tough questions around corruption and the June 12 question has zero conviction behind them. The man has politely demonstrated impunity, politely lied, politely showed no remorse and interviewer is not pressing on any of those questions. She's respectful and we should respect our elders but not those who plunder the nation into crisis and did so much for themselves and their families at the expense of destroying the future of so many generations so he definitely did not deserve the respect he was afforded.
I like what arise News is doing these days, keep calling them out pls...the next should be Gowon and Abdusalami,bring all of them out pls,because the time is near. Up Arise News!
YES 👍
Please, explain what you are saying?
Yes I agree with you
Arise news is not doing anything abeg. IBB chose to do this Interview and can terminate Arise news if he wants to.
Yes
The only time IBB will have to come online is for him to apologize to Nigerians, the families of those he made fatherless. He should ask everyone for mercy.
He is not getting mine
Additionally, he should return the stolen billions (of dollars) with interest.
my brother you make me laugh ooo
The earlier you realize nobody is gonna apologize to ur sorry ass the better for you. If u had been d leader u would have done worst
@@unitednation5398 speak for yourself! We already know what your kind will do.
Of all Nigeria's presidents to date he seems to have the greatest understanding of how the country works. He single handedly turned Nigeria into the most corrupt country in the world almost overnight, in only a few years. That's very impressive. He could have done a lot for Nigerians if he wasn't selfish.
Very interesting he did not argue against his regime being very corrupt to Nigerians instead he was comparing the degrees of the corruption with the current regime : I think that was very appalling and discouraging for his reputation as a corrupt Tyrant leader. I was expecting him to say no it was not.
How exactly did he encourage corruption ?
What would he have done that others after him couldn't do? He gave you local government autonomy, the others that came scattered it. He gave you movement to Abuja, upgraded the airports and full developments. 29years gone what are others doing?
@@AnnieSpecial92861 Read your history since you were a toddler when he was President. You will get a hint of how corrupt he was....
Unverifiable, uncomplimentary, and sentimental assertion! Sheer blackmail. It's yet to be proven as to how IBB's government was more corrupt than other leaders under whose watch the power sector and road infrastructure collapsed.
Kudos to her for skillfully staying on the issues. It'll be nice to see what other past rulers are saying in their old age, when some of them may have begun to realize the consequences of past decisions and actions in present day Nigeria
1
That's how karma catches up with ppl. What goes round comes round
True! Sister Ngozi is a maverick and straight to the point ki d of journalist and not afraid to say it how its.
Rufai is the only one that should handle this type of interview professionally
Thanks for saying my opinion after 15 mins of watching the video. The man shouldn't be made to escape the definition of federalism and say if Nigeria is federal.
Which Rufai? You better not be talking of the wicked Governor of Kaduna State
Rufai would have done an excellent job. He would have crucified IBB intellectually.
She just allowed IBB escape the important questions. Rubbish
It's better this way they didn't involved the young man y'all craving for to hold this interview in order not to endanger him ahead of his career
@@noahobansa5260 That narrative must not be allowed to dominate our society anymore. That act of the Nigerian system dictating which face of journalism thrives and obstruct the reporters of truth must also start getting resisted by that part of the lovers of truth and back support the career of the Rufai(s) to thrive.
And trust me, those of us who want the true journalism to thrive are many enough to support and sustain characters like Rufai.
No matter what older generation will never forget that this man opened the flood gate of corruption in Nigera.Yes we know
You are 100% right bro!! he was the creator of grand theft in government. He took Nigeria to another level of unimaginable corruption and impunity. Infact, he brought 419, drug peddlers, made lots of millionaires whose source of wealth were neither here or there leading to hyperinflation that Nigeria economy is still suffering from till date.
Very true
That's right.
Loool, the 1963 coup was motivated by Corruption... The second Military coup was motivated by large-scale corruption. Let us stop pinning the national problems on individuals. We will not solve the problem as a nation until we stop doing this
Corruption begins with an individual in a family, society etc. Biblical example of Judas betraying Jesus Christ, is no different from IBB or someone else who starts or endorse corruption in his society .
OBI has a vision to our country Nigeria I have a dream ✊🏾
To The people that made this country what it is
You may have looted all the money to last you a lifetime
But I hope that your suffering starts from the Afterlife!
Please Arise news,next time you want to interview people like this,let Rufai handle this,except you don't want to hear these men tell us the truth.. Ngozi is best with giving us news night Nigeria..Rufai is a natural detective in a journalist form..
Don't mind them they won't allow him, that's how they excluded him from those who interviewed Buhari.... Rufai is the man
seconded......
Legendary Rufai.
We have to first appreciate our efforts that have most likely led to that ugly lady called Tundu not sitting down with our able Rufai in the morning show. I felt like going there and uprooting her when she conspicously showed she had fracas with our sole representative there in Rufai. The next one to go should be Mr. Abati whom i feel is also not comfortable with Rufai.
Arise News won't allow Rufai to conduct the interview because they know that he is going to ask IBB tough questions.
He has retired to his "HILLTOP" palatial home while so many Nigerians are living in squalor and abject poverty due partly to the actions and inactions of his likes. I hope he is at peace with himself. Power is transient and mortal life itself has an end.
absolutely true pal...
Very intelligent person, still very sound.
Wish you many more years ahead.
At peace with himself kẹ́, there is no peace for the wicked na him our pipu tọk ó.
He left government 29 years ago, what have you done with your life since 1993 that he left?
@@princeteddyvictoregbon230, you people love your tormentors, how old were you when he left, do you even know your history, do you know how reprobate this man was when in government, he revolutionized corruption and took it to a new level, do you know of the Gloria Okon case and Dele Giwa debacle, so what is there to emulate about a wheel chair bound , decrepit kleptomaniac who can not even account for the 2.8 billion gulf War oil sales Nigeria made in the 90s,you better keep quiet there with your political correctness. Nonsense of the highest order, mtcheww!
Kudos to Mrs Ngozi. She handled the interview very well 👍👍👍
I agree with you, she's Nigeria's CNN's Christiane Amanpour. She handled the interview SUPERBLY! Off her head, without any notes.
IBB WELL SPOKEN, WE AGREE, LET THOSE OLD CRONIES GO AND REST.. WE SUPPORT SOWORE KOLA ABIOLA OR ANY OTHER YOUNGER ASPIRANTS....THOSE OLD CRONIES SHOULD GO AND REST,, HAVENT THEY LOOTED ENOUGH BILLIONS ....
In The 50's/60's Nigeria Is A Beautiful Country To Live. Nigeria Was Practising Regional System Of Govt.
thats not what Uju Anya says, she says Nigeria was a slave of Britain
@@edsnotgod Was she even born then?
Contrary to most comments, Ms Ngozi did very well; she asked the important questions but wasn't forceful & persistent on certain issues & I suspect that's because the interview wasn't intended to be aggressive & confrontational
She should have been grilled this guy more though (many Nigerians deeply dislike/hate him & want him behind bars/facing trials)
She showed maturity & composure, well done Ma'am👏🏽👏🏾👏🏿👏🏼
I love IBB's intellectual alertness. He still has grip of himself and history.
Sacrifice and honesty will take Nigeria to the next level of nationhood
He's was one of the key major person who brought us to where we are today in Nigeria, he played a very bad roll in the history of the country,wanted to gain free Marshall before relocating state capital to Abuja. Very bad man and he killed a lots of people
And he had the audacity to call it an "intervention".
IBB is being very careful with his words. He's very careful, not to criticize the current government. Even though it's obvious that he is dissatisfied with their extremely poor leadership.
Yes, you were very observant. He was very careful with the choice of words. Young people should learn from this interview.
@@enuguman8689 learn what exactly???
You are so right! He’s very intelligent and very careful taking the questions. Besides that, he has some valid point though.
@Korean Civilization. I am also a young person(
IBB is very intelligent. He said that Nigeria economy under Buhari has not crashed. This is very diplomatic. IBB didn't say that Buhari is doing well or not. Secondly, he said that the military had to do more without commenting specifically on the present state of the military. Thirdly, he described the qualities of the person who should be the next president without mentioning a political party , an individual or a specific region. That's wisdom.
Babangida is talking out of his nyash. He was one of the BIGGEST causes of the rot of Nigeria.
The best thing he said in this interview is that Nigerians are wonderful people you cannot intimidate them “ agreed 100%.
Thank you so much Ngozi, for this wonderful interview. I 'm happy for the professionalism you employed throughout the interview. Now I am beginning to see IBB, differently. So glad he treated all your questions, including the June 12 cancellation, which he had always, refused to attempt. I like to congratulate him on his new age and status in life.
IBB is now saying he’s a saint but the fact remains that his regime institutionalized corruption in Nigeria .
exactly
Though he was bad but he always adjust
@@jokpaoghenerealtors5206 how did he adjust after annulling the election? How did he adjust after using his friendship to disarm him - Dimka.
All corruptions before him was at secondary level at best. He taught Nigeria Msc in corruption. Goodluck took us into Phd in corruption. This current regime is teaching us combined honors of corruption and insecurity.
I think in his older years, he is more reflective and has nothing else but to tell the truth of situations
The interviewer did great and highly professional too. IBB was as evasive in his characteristic manner.
Interviewer was very patronising.
Gen Ibrahim Babangida is one of the best and most prayerfully affectionately goodnatured Snr Officers i grew up in my early twenties during my military cadetship training at the Nigerian Defence Academy Kaduna 7th Regular Course mate of GenOgomudia fmr CDS and V AdmAfolayan fmr CNS!
Gen IBB inspite of his rumoured incapacitation and on a wheelchair or dementia but i hold a very different personal opinion!
Many many many Happy Returns on your 80th birthday anniversary celebrations and we wish you Long Life and Prosperity in Christ Jesus the Nazarene Amen Sir!
I believe that the reason we have agitations for secession in Nigeria is that the right things are not being done. If governance had given every section of the Nigerian society the necessary dividends in terms of economic welfare and acceptance, and no section is marginalized in any way, there won't be such agitations. If there were no looting of the treasury at federal, state and local government levels, and if the resources were appropriately managed for the benefit of all, there would not be agitations for secession. In the present dispensation, Peter Obi stands out as the magic wand that is capable of restoring the Nigerian State economically. He is highly detribalized and he would use the best Nigerians to achieve his purposes, irrespective of tribe or ethnicity. He is sound beyond measure in all respects. Nigeria and Nigerians need him now! Atiku and Bola Tinubu do not fit. They have looted our treasury enough! They contributed immensely to the bastardizing of the Nigerian State, her economy, and her morality. They are epitomes of corruption. PETER OBI IS OUR NECESSARY STRUCTURE UNOPPOSED!
Thank
Well said bro
...............?
Ike,your opinion is wrong because this same Peter Obi was in governance and nothing tangible he did on Anambra. He was a specialist in maintaining roads and other infrastructures but never built new one's. Lies upon lies.Those social media criers are crying for nothing and none of them have been able to convince if Peter Obi was not part of the problem. Peter Obi made himself more than the Anambras who voted for him.
It's an ongoing development. Peter Obi is best visible option but not the answer. It's a good start. He is a placard.
This evil genius has no justification whatsoever to comment on democracy and the state of the nation which he selfishly distorted.
The history of Nigerian democracy would probably have been better without the name IBB.
Where is Rufai. Rufai would asked pertinent questions.
Ask them o. This woman is not it.
Rufai or no Rufai, IBB was not ready to speak as you wanted. He was very careful with his choice of words.
@@enuguman8689 ur right my brother, and if I may ask,what pertinent question again does the guy want?
Did you think they will send Rufai for this kind of interview? It rub my back and rub yours. This is organized interview.
One thing that stands out for him was the establishment of corruption in Nigeria.
One of the thing the general said that I heard very well is, there's a disconnect between the leadership and the followership. The leaders keep hiding the truth from the people at all times and doing the wrong thing. So leadership is our major problem in our national unity
Sincerely at 80 ,I would not want to be asked these questions , we should let these old men and women retire and rest . The story of our yesterday is theirs , but today and tomorrow can certainly not be told by them . Please Arise , ask young men how we can get out of the rut we are in .
My brother, how time flies...how old was he when he was president.
They need to interviewed cos they stole Nigeria dry!!!!
I strongly agree with you 💯
Gbosa for you my brother
"No peace for the wicked "
We are where we are as a nation in large part because of this man.
Yet stupid journalists keep going to interview him basically for brown envelopes. Bringing his ideas down is the key job of youths if they will ever have a life
really? how do you know..are you nigerian? what is his name? i need to google him and find out his biography...they call him IBB but i dont get his name really
Ngozi is a very intelligent journalist asking the right questions and giving her guest time to respond without interfering.
Ngozi, that was an awesome interview! Individually, Nigerians will blossom when they know that their leader cares and doing the right things to advance the country.
Lady Ngozi has a solid command of the English language, am impressed with the quality of the interviewing skills exhibited by her.
I agree with you Ibrahim Musa
I LOVE THAT PART How we engineered and the Maradonnic way we handled you guys
Love him or hate him, Babaginda is one of the most intelligent leaders we ve had. Arguably very corrupt, but has greater understanding of this nation. One could only wish he practiced what he now preached.
Abi
This is a remarkable comment, especially coming from someone with an Ibo name.
What is the value of such intelligence if it was never used for the benefit of the country and its growth?? No one needs that sort of intelligence without moral fortitude
What an interview without discussion about OIC this man dragged Nigeria into. God will never forgive you all.
You are one of those that brought us to where we are now , do you not think that you should remain silent.
Why interview dis corrupted leader, he was d architect problem we are facing 2day, God Shall punish all ur unborn generations to generation.
This man seems always composed when giving interviews. I wish there were more hard questions the lady gave. Next time, please allow Rufai to be the interviewer. He has the nerves to give tough questions. Abati tries trys to sit on the fence.
Must we interview him in the first place? Who is he?
Abati has wined and dined with them, so he would rather not blow too much hot or cold.
Our jèkòjèkò journalists ask questions as if the interview is to showcase or sell their guests for a future election. The same way Akeredolu rubbed oil on IBB during his lackluster interview.
No wonder Fani KAYODE called them “brown envelope journalists “
Abati, an errand boy to politicians…
I support you 100%

Such an intelligent interview from an intelligent woman. Kudos to you Ngozi Alaegbu. Pls our media you're the salt of the society don't be cower down by the power that be at any level.
So from what IBB is saying, I can imagine that the major piece of the puzzle missing from the Nigerian project is visionary leadership.
It's unfortunately that some of you don't understand Nigeria, important interview can not be given to Rufai, they knew what he is capable of doing I'm not surprised
You think IBB will allow Rufai to interview him? Cabal know the weak journalists so Rufai is not among weak one he will be too much for them.
100%
Rufai does not have the pedigree to interview IBB. You need a veteran journalist to talk to iconic people like IBB
@@Tech.Library what do you mean Rufai doesnt have Pedigree to interview IBB? Who is he?
@@godwinejiofor8064 It means he doesn't have the name & mental composure; its not about knowledge of historical events or quoting poets.
It's asking difficult questions in a formal composed way; also remember different interviews have different formats (this 1 is probably intended to be less aggressive/confrontational)
She asked the needed questions: a little too calm but she asked them
We all tend to forget that in 1960 when according to President Babangida, we agreed to be one country, our then leaders recognised the differences and partitioned the country into three semi-nations called regions. These regions were working and controlling their economy and contributing to the federal government. They even had their own ambassadors outside Nigeria, aside the federal ambassadors. We have forgotten all these. The country was running better then. The whole problem started when you military people reversed the status quo to now have the federal controlling everywhere and feeding the entire large country from Lagos and later Abuja. Truth is: untill you reverse the structure back to what it was in 1960 or something like it, you will keep struggling with unity and you must eventually break-up. We, so large, are all caged-up under Abuja; this is the problem!
BRAVO TO NGOZI!!!
Nigeria's CNN's Christiane Amanpour. She handled the interview SUPERBLY! Off her head, without any notes.
IBB said they are saints when compared with the present administration 😂😂😂😂
Buhari and APC 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Can somebody wake me up, IBB is talking about core values. What a joke.
I’m equally as appalled as you are. Shocking!
The ARISE TV is a disappointment. They're now sinking low to the level of Channels TV
regardless of who is saying it , do not throw away the message, Nigerian people lack core values. I dont like any past or present leader, not only IBB, all of them are the same but even all of us in our work place, are we all faithful to the government or our bosses? We need to look at ourselves so that we dont repeat what the old thieves did
This man is a mad man
P
If Abacha did not die, nobody will be talking about his loot. I also know Babagida the Maradonna taught Abacha how to steal. In that case, can you all ask Babagida to point us to his loot in foreign land before he dies? else the west will not refund what belongs to us.
Truly
My brother you make me laugh did you think he will tell you, and did you think those loot's they are still there in out country?
" I also know that babaginda taught abacha"
How do you know this, were a fly on the wall, when the lesson were taking place
This statement here emphasis why nigeria is in a mess, we speculate without any fact, everything is based on emotion and feeling and zero fact base
The Great problem 👌 of NIGERIA is Leadership but in addition Sound Character Leadership is our Greatest Challenge Now 😁.
Peter Obi is the Best to Fix Nigerian's Leadership Challenge Now. The Way Out is Peter Obi come 2023. IBB can confirm so.
I thank God for IBB, he is very intact and I wish could come back as President.
For people like these to still be granted interviews instead of being locked away in prison shows how backward Nigeria has regressed and how difficult its gonna be to get out of this quagmire we are in.
Well said.
Well said 👍👍👍👍
Journalism and money have a strange odour, which is not pleasant.
A country where men who don't have honour are crowned and those with honour are killed at a young age.
The man that should have been stoned is glamorously being interviewed as a celebrity.
if this interviewer were to interview barrister ejiofor i bet you will see the arrogance in her and the type of question that will be asked, this is more like a discussion between husband and wife. total waist of time.
Bro u said it all, I am so pissed

Please disengage with this devilish man. He is out of sence.
This is the only Leader who listen to the ideas of Nigerians both old and young before he took decisions.
Even at 80 he was this sharp. A really brilliant man. He really deserves the tag "evil genius"
Contrary to some sentiments here, I believe the Interviewer did a good job. Quite professional and asked the pertinent question. Balanced and not adversarial like some people wanted. Good job, Arise TV and Ngozi

IBB is a factor in Nigeria,s political development. This trial by error democracy is not paying off, and as such be discarded. We need restructuring as the way out. We as a matter of fact must resolve the issue of unity. I.B.B, should be listened to being a major player in the field of corruption.

You and your brother, the looter-in-chief, Abacha banded together to deny chief Abiola his mandate and left him to die in your custody, and you want us to listen to you now? Give me a break!

You people are selfish, you always malign and demonise Northerners; while southerners are the most corrupt people on Earth.Look at civil servants at Federal level when Federal capital was at Lagos, everything is give me money for you to have your file processed.Even here at Abuja southerners demand for bribery for whatever you want them to do.

IBB is greed personified. Such an Evil Man
How can a former leader of a country use the phrase “they can …” as opposed to “we can …”? He places himself apart from Nigerians. This is a problem.
His conscience knows that he tried to destroy Nigeria, so he is not part of Nigeria. He knows this. He annulled the most peaceful election. He knows. You can't lie to your conscience. Notice how he uses "we" before his regime, and changed it to "they", after his regime.
Beautiful questions with brilliant answers . The interview made my day
The level of jonalism in Nigeria is really nothing to write home about, Ibb himself raised some certain issues that the interviewer failed to capitalised on, for instance when he says ( at least the economy hasn't collapse yet ) she should have take him on that, and few others...

The lady is brilliant and intelligent to have interviewed IBB, U can't do better than her... Our journalism is fast growing!

Whenever I listen to this very diabolical man commenting on national issues, my heart bleeds for Nigeria. It's surprising that he still moves about a free man today & some shameless people still regard him as a stateman & even celebrate him despite all the unprecedented atrocities he committed against the Nigerian state while he ruled between August 27th 1985 - August 27th 1993. Here's a man that unilaterally annulled the best election in the annals of elections in Nigeria & almost plunged the country into another war in the process. Here's a man who mismanaged the 12 .4 Billion Dollars gulf war windfall in 1991 . Here's a man that was clearly linked with the murder of one of the finest journalists in Nigeria, the late Oladele Sunmonu Giwa on 19th October, 1986 . In a saner clime, this evil man would have been cooling his heels in jail long ago, but unfortunately this is Nigeria where evil men always have their way. But whether he likes it or not, Babangida cannot escape retributive justice. The judgment of God is about visiting Babangida before he faces the torments of the grave !
@@mabinuorimayowa2540 Obj is a free agent huh?
Thank you to this journalist. You mentioned the key issues which the Nigerian leadership is disconnected from which feeds their callous and indifferent leadership: love and care! The African male's understanding of love and care is CONTROL!
You just nailed my heart like a carpenter intelligent one I don't mind to be your disciples of knowledge 🫂💯
Infant if IBB can speak out this way while are we not allowed ex to speak out for the present. We need their intervention also, how long can we remain like This brethren
Fulani security agents are currently abducting and killing Igbo youths and IBB is silent. Anyone who does not speak against the violence and insecurity across Nigeria might as well remain silent.
I don’t really dislike this tribalistic,sentimental and insincere comments like this, the person interviewing was an Igbo woman, and u did not ask why she did not ask such question but to accuse the person interviewed why he did not talk about what was not asked to him.
@@adeyemigbeleyi9677 The problems facing Nigeria is obvious during Buhari’s government. Nigerian journalists are not no free , perhaps she is afraid of being targeted. Remember Dele Giwa killed during Babangida’s regime. In my opinion, people like him and all ex military heads of state should not be given a voice. They all have led Nigeria to this mess. He had his chance twice.
@@adeyemigbeleyi9677 as though that invalidates his comment.
@@adeyemigbeleyi9677 that's the fact,such people like this you know they're real tribalist and through comments they are trying to disunited nation
why dont you challenge your House of Rep members and senators including Governors to speak on your behalf?
2021, SAME Nigeria is still struggling to become a Nation since 1960.
Can you imagine what IBB is suggesting for Nigeria as a way out in the midst of total breakdown of law and order. So, because Nigeria has been in an inglorious position for more than 50yrs, therefore we should remain like that without adjustments?
Honestly I too was surprised by that statement he made.
Sir congratulations to former president Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida as he marks 80 years of age.I wish him many more good and great years ahead in good health and peace of mind .
General Babangida, there is NO PEACE OF MINDS IN NIGERIA. You are one of the elderstatemen who put Nigerians in Nigeria in total darkness! Thank God that you are now witnessing the evil seeds planted, germinating.
You didn't ask him the necessary questions and when you asked one you don't allow him to answer it. I would have preferred rufai or Dr abatti
I would prefer Charles to anchor this interview
of course, Ngozi did a very good Job. She was too professional, very diplomatic and friendly.
Abatti can be economical with the truth sometimes. He had the platform when buhari came to lagos but he behaved like a secondary school headboy on instructions.
Seeing that man IBB makes me angry
Abati would be diplomatic. Rufai is the best I can think of
Respect to IBB. It is as simple as it is, Young Nation followed suit with the coup instead of understanding what life it wants. IBB said it all
Chidi Michael, you are a wise man.
Good man at this age he still has ideas for good governance and local government.
Why not Rufai? Rufai suppose to be the interviewer. He would have asked the salient questions
Exactly, I never appreciate anything this lady does. She is not a journalist to me.
Arise is full of this bias interviews. Same with Buhari interview! He would have grilled the charlatans.
@@ng1471 She is a stooge. Very annoying lady.
You are right
They know what they are doing.
They won't dare to use rufai for such magnitude of the interview, my man will drills them speechless
Non-negotiable? The audacity, and the level of arrogance of these guys is staggering!
He should have been made to see its success in places like EU/Britain, and other nations. Why should somebody see it as non negotiable in Nigeria. Why? Except the people saying no are the ones holding the power...
I just love Ngozi Alaegbu; she is beautiful, she is bright, she is brilliant 🤩….& a true daughter of Zion
What a wonderful interview she had with Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida
By the way, was Babangida’s mother a Yoruba woman from Ogbomosho?
YEs
@@temiladealamudun5063 she fid not allow him to answer most of the questions explicitly particularly his choice for Marym .
Oga keep quiet there. What has your father done for the country? This is the only thing u know how to do - sit down there and hurl condescending words at elders who actually contributed in nation building.
I expected IBB to speak about the state of the nation remorsefully. He is speaking like somebody from another country profering solutions for Nigeria situation. I'm surprised
God bless IBB ala 'Maradona' He hit the nail on the head on several level. I recollect that Nigeria we had when he was in power compared to now. To even take IMF loan he made it a public debate for all on TV and Radio. His presidency tho military was ran somewhat like a civilian government. I was in university then NYSC then. Rule from the lower level, not from the higher down. State show focus on infrastructures, state policies and budget oversight to name a few...instead of micro-managing to the lowest level. Same should be on the Federal level, focus on Polices, Security, Federal level infrastructures, lead the people to run a free enterprise economy. That's what's practiced in the US. Shagari's regime tried it to some extent but corruption, partisanship and lack of common unitary value destroy it. May God help us as we're now poised to help ourselves thru supporting the youths.
Nigeria will continue to struggle until we all come together as one with one voice against this corrupt politicians
Very strongly agreed
And also to cut out cronyism, tribalism and general selfishness from Nigerian society.
Those of you asking why Rufai wasn't sent, hope you guys know that he's arrogant and with people like that Arise would never get anywhere near these top politicians. My guess is it's same reason he wasn't included amongst the team that had a session with PMB.
Meanwhile, IBB decided not to share anything on this interview, evasive as usual. I hope he tells us the whole truth someday before he dies, we deserve that at least.
I disagree with you on Rufai,he is not arrogant rather he's blunt, straight forward and sincere.yes, if taken may not give Arise TV head way on top interviews again but know for sure that he's the type we need in Nigeria now.
@@ademolamary7225 There's a thin line between arrogance and confidence and I can tell when a person is the former. I have watched Amanpour and other top journalists interview tyrants and notable world leaders, trust me I could tell when I see a arrogant one. Classic example was one of his interviews with governor Wike when he, Rufai insisted the man tell him the number of people he employs monthly as governor of rivers. Abati had to step in to salvage what was already an awkward situation.
Just so you know, I like him as a journalist and I consider him to be highly cerebral but dude needs to learn some diplomacy.
@john aboshim you don’t know zelch if you think Rufai is arrogant.
He was a good leader for all the times. IBB I love u. U created a lot of development. Including the Arabic village university in Ngala Borno state. I need to see IBB the best president in Nigerian history. My name is Mohammed Auwal isa
I can remember when the military said that the whole Nigerian civil servants should go to their regional area and start working, that was the year I know that Nigeria are not united, because in the country where there's unity anyone can work in any part parts of country as a civil servants..
This worth listening to,he said it all-Nigeria is suffering from failure of leadership.
See what man can do to fellow man. Incredible!
This is the man that supports Peter Obi Nigerians you better be careful.
He has been a very great Leader.A very fantastic and intelligent retired General sir .A detribalised and Benevolent General sir.
Seeing this man make me sick mostly during his time as head of state,theives
Just from this interview I can see why people revere him as a Maradona. He seems very smart, intelligent and street wise.
Street wise my foot, na street mentality dem take Dey run country Abi. These despot & their cohort destroyed naija
Yes he’s really Maradona, very smart man, but at this age he should be able to apologize to Nigerian.
The only handsome Nigeria president of all times 🤣😂
Like seriously! This man is a real devil, and this fulanis hausas dont have head.
Are you his girlfriend? You speak so highly of him. To me he sounds like an old f00l.
@@ronj7658 please calm down. I am not trying to speak highly of him at all. You can dislike someone but still admit to their characteristics. He is indeed street smart, now what he does with that is another issue.
The best interview that puts salt into injury!
Insult to injury
Ngozi, you are just too amazing with the manner you conducted this interview.👏🏾👏🏾
At 80, IBB still manifests every attributes of an evil genious. He may not be the brightest bulb in the chandelier, but his aura is contagious. History will either be kind or mad at him depending on the vista you viewed his involvement in Nigerian project from. That said, I smiled when he surreptitiously scored himself high by saying his government was a saint compared to the gross corruption in the successive governments.
Obviously.
Well said!!
Kodeni dara fun ee
How can history be kind to him? What exactly did he do to justify history being kind to him.
IBB-MARADONA, THIEF😡😡😡
It's not collapse meaning the Economy has already spoiled by Buhari....
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👍👍👍
Break up is the only answer
I applaud this bold journalist who asked what many would not have asked IBB
I applaud you, sir, IBB. We as a Nation are quick to condemn you, but you had the interest of the Country at heart-a man who gave his wife a platform to shine.
We should think of United democracy as it should be. IBB is not INEC rigging the elections, nor is he your state's governors not providing essential services to the people.
