Former military president, General Ibrahim Babangida (IBB) has said history will judge him as leader of the country for eight years.
In an interview he granted the Federal University of Technology (FUT) Minna Search FM Radio, he advised younger Nigerians aspiring to lead the country to seek to know the people and understand the country better.
His regime annulled the June 12, 1993 presidential election won by the late politician, Chief MKO Abiola, and adjudged the freest in the annals of the country, resulting into a prolonged political crisis in the country.
