BABANGIDA’S JUNE 12 CONFESSION: A CASE OF TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE?

.

The cat is finally out of the bag! General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida, the infamous mastermind behind the annulment of the June 12, 1993, presidential election, has finally confessed to his role in the heinous act. But is this confession a genuine attempt to clear his conscience, or is it just a clever ploy to rewrite history?

THE ANNUALMENT: A COUP D’ETAT AGAINST DEMOCRACY

The June 12 election was a beacon of hope for Nigerians, a chance to choose their leader in a free and fair election. But Babangida’s annulment crushed that hope, plunging the nation into darkness and despair. The Committee for the Defence of Human Rights (CDHR) has aptly described the annulment as a “brazen sociopolitical and moral assault” on Nigerians.

Babangida’s confession raises more questions than answers. Why now, after all these years? Is this a genuine attempt to make amends, or is it just a clever PR stunt to salvage his battered reputation? The CDHR has called for Babangida’s prosecution for crimes against humanity, but will this confession be enough to bring him to justice?
