Thanks man, nice writ. What i cannot understand are the vituperations being poured on the person of Mr. Babangida simply because he saw off Vasta and his cohorts. With all due respect, what he did was right and should not be surprising to any sound, sentiment-free mind. I aint too sure but i daresay Mamman was less likely to have spared his friend had the coup succeeded so what are we talking about? The military is serious business whose harsh rules soldiers have to learn to play by or be outplayed. Mr. Babangida may not have been the best thing to have happened to Nigeria but methinks he got it just right here. As for guys like crownabbey who post such repulsive and indecent comments on this page, please stop. It is by far more dignifying to hold one's peace & piece especially when objectivity is missing. Wait until you find yourself in a situation such as Mr. Babangida's. It will be interesting, very interesting to see how you will react to such brazen treachery from trusted quaters.
