Former Military President, General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida (IBB), has restated his support and stand for the election of a young President in the 2023 general election.

He said the youths share the vision of Nigeria’s founding fathers to actualise the nation’s dreams.

Babangida spoke yesterday when a 40-year-old All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential aspirant, Adamu Garba, visited him at his Hilltop Residence in Minna, the Niger State capital.

Lauding the bravery of the aspirant, Babangida said he always believed in the potential of the youth to take over power and address the realities of global challenges.

Addressing reporters after the meeting with the former military leader, Garba said he was in Minna to seek Babangida’s blessings, guidance and support and to notify him of his intention to run for the office of the President in 2023 elections.

He promised to prioritise the country’s economic development and reform the civil service for effective and efficient service delivery, among other programmes, if elected.
