A former Head of State Yakubu Gowon has thanked ex-military president Ibrahim Babangida for helping him and contributing to Nigeria’s development.
Gowon said this in Abuja today during a book launch by the former military president.
“I had a very rough time in government, I was even charged for treason,” Gowon said during the event. “Later on, President Shagari rescinded that order, and you (IBB) in the end restored my rank and honour. You did quite a lot for the country.”
According to him, his friendship with the former president dates back to several years ago.
