It's very convenient of him to say all these when the main protagonist is no longer alive to rebut him. I take all that he said concerning the late MKO Abiola with a pinch of salt.
He speaks impeccably, even more so than Soyinka. In the first 7 minutes of this clip, he only made one mistake where he pronounced the word disinterested as 'dizinterested' which I allude to a slip of tongue. Good show, sir. Jolly good show!
After the two interviews with ABK, my views on him changed. He was a fine diplomat tilldate. The press in nigeria made him look like judace iscariot becos of june 12 palava. But he wasnt. Several thing stands him out, he was a kind man gentleman, a democrat, a fine diplomat and experienced civil servant. Well am versed to my good friend from that part of from Biu, Bornu state whom we both attended ABU zaria together, in person of Ahmadu Betara. He had shared some of these political intrigues with me be4 now. Although the way they saw nigeria issues is different from the way we see it in the western nigeria. We re all victims of military govt. Most of Nigeria's problems today were fermented by these undemocratic bunch of military men. They were rouges in uniform and all of them in AFC felt they could become head of state by guns. Am glad they have now been confined to their army barracks. Renegade armies of nigeria!

If anyone still don’t see him as a sell out in everything he said, you’re being fooled. He also the one who was sent to him to smooth talk him to bring Abiola back from London. If you think that he didn’t betray Abiola why do you think Abiola would point blank told him that statement “Eye o so feye pe oko nbo”?
@@adebisifunmilola4663 you and most of our yoruba brothers and sisters are the ones being fooled by the name MKO... You took kingibe persuading MKO to come back to Nigeria out of context.. And you wrong for saying they sent him. Was it only kingibe that went to him, Did no MKO went with his brother Jagaban to congratulate him and not forgetting that same MKO has been dealings with coup plotters like the one that ousted Buhari out... MKO ochestrated the death of June 12 and the burial ceremony of June 12 thus putting himself up as the "fly" that want to follow the dead June 12 inside the grave. We Yorubas are our problem and will never have a united front towards Nigeria talkless of Yoruba nation
As part of the 'untold story', Abiola himself was unaware that he would be traveling out of Nigeria by midnight of Monday, August 2, 1993 before the MEETING. The decision was reached around 4.30am on Tuesday. Alhaja Kudirat Abiola was the only wife and family member that had a hint of what transpired. One day Nigerians will know why Chief Abiola suddenly had to leave and how he, inadvertently, saved the Federal Republic, not himself as Babagana's interview has suggested. See clip of his address to the UN General Assembly for a clue
Hello @rotim, do you mind giving a link or source to the said clip of address to the UN General Assembly? Also, could you mind elaborating on how Abiola saved Nigeria, please give a direct clue, thank you.
@@simonc1521 Please see CNN news reports on Nigeria from when he left the country and mid August 1993. Why did he claim that what the world witnessed in Sierra Leone and Liberia would be a child's play if the military refused to honour the June 12 mandate? He wasn't an army general or a warlord. Apparently, he had revealed what he saw to BBG, the then UN General Secretary and the Security Council. The information will be declassified in due course. God bless Nigeria
Presidential candidate( a southerner) couldn't get an appointment to meet the president babangida but ABK a northerner who was picked as running mate got appointment to meet the president 😢.. tribalism at work.. God will judge all of us
Even after the way MKO Abiola was mistreated, Yoruba's still did not figure out that Hausa-Fulani power structure were enemies. Yorubas finally figured things out in 2021.
The only tribe that is unforgivable in its treatment with people is Yoruba. Despite, everything IBB did to compensate them in bringing Obasanjo you still had the gut to speak in that manner. How long will it take you to believe that you're fully compensated.
You're nothing but a complete fool. Did you listen to the part where Kingibe said that at the meeting where the leaders of the SDP held to discuss how to approach the Abacha govt and the Igbo delegation went outside to have a caucus meeting and decided that June 12 was a Yoruba fight. Very shameful.
Now we know who Kayser Soze was during the June 12 struggle. Sir, you knew all along everything that transpired before, during, and after the death of the protagonist and the antagonistic. Atiku and Ya'rdua pressured Babangida to annul the election! Ambassador Kingibe, sir, you betrayed your principal, and I hope that one day, you and your cohorts will ask every Nigerian man, woman, and child for forgiveness.
BBC has been the problem of Nigeria. But the truth of the matter is that Abacha has decided to overthrew the interim government. IBB and Abacha should be blamed!!
After 4 years of this interview only 74 people commented on this. It shows how dissatisfied people are with this man. I stopped listening to him at 13 minutes of the interview. I described him as a betrayal of the highest order, even when Abiola died one expected him to come out and protest with millions of Nigerians people who stood behind Abiola. Same thing Buhari did to late Dr. Chuba Okadigbo was died while protesting their election defeat in which he was a running mate to Buhari. Sadly, Buhari spend 8 years as president of Nigeria, without a minute to tribute to his fallen running mate. Shame on you people
People cannot smell bs from afar. Very unfortunate. This man is no good I’m sore guys. That appointment from abacha is not fully explained. And the fact remains his wasn’t in good terms with abiola right after that till he died. Very important to keep in your mind while you listen to him. Who could guarantee he wasn’t part of what happened to abiola? Never knew his details like this. I just have issues with the fact he couldn’t talk sense into abiola, instead he continued fully on the opposite. Maybe because he and abacha are from the north
But I had thought these grey areas would have been part of the oputa panel of reconciliation commission.And rest nigerias restless souls and indeed Nigeria and Africa.
Babagana Kingibibe while branding Orissa Abiola as naive and at the same time was upset at Abiola attacking him for joining Abaca, pretended that he did not realise that his decision was the ultimate coup against June 12's indissoluble presidency : that once either or the presidential candidate or his vice president joins Abacha , the sacredness of that mandate has been breached. Citing Jakande and Bolaji Akinyemi as joining Abacha is not the same as Kingibe or Abiola directly joining as that eventuality made the retrieval of the indivisible mandate impossible. Abacha must have outmanouvred Kingibibe himself by pretending they could both sideline Abiola and he would hand over to Kingibe as his ethnic sibling if it proved difficult for the military to hold on to power. Of course other Nigerians saw this larger picture being no fools, of the North never wanting power to rotate to the South at the time. What series of interviewers failed to ask Bagangina and Kingibe is why either or both did not prevail on Abacha to release Abiola to a protective custody in his own house if not that he was being held as ransome and hostage in case anything happened to Abacha in which case he would not be let out alive as it eventually happened. It was not Abacha who outmanouvred Oosa Abiola, it was Kingibe who connived with his ethno- military champion annoyed that he had been left out of the group nominated into the interim government to dine with the Abacha devil with a long spoon, in case he (Abacha) defaulted on his gentleman agreement, and he ( Abacha) never being an officer iand gentleman but a glorified subaltern. In the final analysis of the they orchestrated the inevitable : of Oosa and Abiola being able to catapulted the to being the latest addition of the Orisa pantheon consecrated for their valour like Sango and Ogun. Oosa Abiola demonstrated what Alaafin Adeyemi the Great said in Apomu ( the Apomu doctrine) that All the valiant Yoruba Eso ( field commanders) and their Kakanfo (overall generalissimos) understand that they abhor being felled from behind and that it is either victory in warfare or death on the battlefront. In Abiola's case it is dual Godhead of Yoruba and Nigerian pedigree. Look who had the last laugh on puny humans and bowed out in a blaze of glory :, Oosa Abiola! Prince Yinka Agbetuyi Educationist
Do we still have politicians like Babagana Kingibe in Nigeria. APC and PDP destroyed everything before Buhari buried it with nepotism. He set up Fulanis above other ethnic nationals
Carefully applied cultural colouration to justify his reason for accepting to be part of Abacha’s government. When he used the term culturally, for me, that was the giveaway that he could not rise above tribal sentiment in his decision. Like every politician of Nigerian extract, he is self serving.
Your styles, postures and actions necessitated Abiola's decision to loose confidence in you and your utterance shows that you exonerated yourself to every fault /error. So, there's an element of betrayal in your actions.

Bottom line, we black people are inept and cannot govern themselves. All these politicians and military men torpedoed the progress of a great nation and we are suffering the consequences up till today. Africa is a mess , we like to blame the West for our problems but our people have a huge part to play in the destruction of our continent. Can we point to any nation in the world governed by black people that is successful? There is none. we hear great things about Rwanda but wait until kagame dies or is booted out of office and see what happens to Rwanda. All these revisionist history being recounted by retired politicians and military men like Babangida is laughable. Nigeria is in trouble big time and I am sorry to say , but this new crop of politicians cannot save us.
Sometimes, it's hard to see that people becomes unforgivable in life when it comes to matters of life. MKO Abiola passed away long time ago and still people are saying negative things about June, 12. I don't know whether such condemnations and or blames will bring back Abiola to this world. Abiola is gone and so do June, 12 hence, no amount of blames and condemnations will bring the two back. Why don't we just call it over and move on. Condemning other tribes in this regard will not help matters. Unless of course if a person already had his own mindset or scores to settle and took advantage of that. I think is high time to call a spade spade and forget about all this please.
You are just telling us why Abiola was not sworn in. He reneged on the agreement with Yar'Adua to pick Atiku as VP. Yar Adua may have forgiven Abiola if he didn't pick Kingibe but Yar' Adua felt Kingibe had betrayed him after Yar'Adua was disqualified and Kingibe decided to run for President. Yar'Adua created Kingibe during the days from People Front (PF), he funded Kingibe to beat the PSP Candidate Mohd Arzika who was sure on to win the SDP Chairmanship. Yar'Adua felt betrayed and latched out, the rest is history. Babangida has to tell this story in full before he dies. Otherwise Atiku needs to come clean... these are the only people left who can tell us what happened.
There is no need for anybody to come out and tell you anything. Coz, no matter what any of the two (IBB& Atiku) said you won't believe them. Abiola is gone and people are still agitating on June 12 as if such agitations will bring him back.
@Yusuf, You're a poor student of history and pure hater of the truths. I notice you've been saying this all over the comment session that everyone should not talk about history and move on just like that. If that's how people/nation move (s) on, they wouldn't call for setting-up Oputa panel in the first place.
So well spoken. I’m learning now about Nigeria’s dark history after watching Atiku’s 2023 statement on the election. Love from 🇰🇪
He who kills by sword shall die by it. MKO, for all his involvement in the coups, he just earned his reward period! Kingibe seems like a nice man but I reserved my 10% about his smooth explanation!
This man knew what was happening behind the curtain all the way. He was only closing this story.
🤣
This man is so straight forward dealing,he stands his ground and demonstrated'One of good character and will to be loyalist
I love the way Kingebe chose his word, Frank & intelligent. How I wish he could still serve Nigeria.
