Babangida Seriously ill, Unable To Walk Unaided, Assures to Return Healthier

Former military president, General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida (rtd), is seriously suffering from an illness which has greatly emaciated him, making him unable to walk without assistance, 
According to a source close to his hilltop mansion in Minna, the born former head of state, IBB, now looks pale and walks only with the aid of a walking stick or the assistance of his security personnel.

The source  frurther revealed to ww.ashiwaju.org that the illness has made him unable to attend most public functions, adding that he has cut down on the number of visitors he receives at his home.
Although the real cause of his illness was not ascertained, the source claimed that aside it being age-related; the former military president might be suffering from a relapse of the radiculopathy disease which has troubled the former Nigerian leader since he was head of state.
Speaking from Germany through General Abubakar’s mobile telephone, he said, “I miss all of you. I wish you all Barka de Sallah.
“I am better now and I will be back in a few days time.
“I thank Nigerians for their prayers and well wishes. Insha Allah, I will be back to Nigeria very soon.”
The former leader was hospitalised last month in a German hospital.
