IBB speaks on getting a new wife

Nigeria’s former military president, General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida popularly known as IBB, has reacted to the reports claiming he was searching for a new wife.

Asked in an interview with Daily Trust if he was truly shopping for a new wife, the elder statesman said: “That’s what the media wanted. A lot of people asked me and I said that’s what you (media) said. It is not necessarily what I said.”

Babangida said since the demise of his wife, Maryam Babangida, in 2009, he copes with life by enjoying the company of his children.
