WELCOME TO KTNBIO

Raees Abacha, the grandson of late military Head of State, Sani Abacha, says his grandfather saved the life of his friend and classmate, General Ibrahim Babangida, IBB, while they were both in the military.

The younger Abacha also cast doubt on the contents of IBB’s book, ‘Journey In Service’.

This is coming after the release of former military President, Babangida’s memoir which has reignited debates about Nigeria’s political history.

In the book, Babangida disclosed that the late Head of State, Sani Abacha, was once his biggest headache.

He recalled how Abacha attempted to violently remove him from power through a coup.

Babangida said that Abacha plotted the coup by spreading false narrative within the military about him that he was the problem.

Reacting on his X handle on Saturday, Raees said his grandfather did everything within his power to protect Babangida’s life and reputation as a friend should to a friend.

He said whoever believes what Babangida said in the book will follow him to damnation.

“If the lifespans of these two consequential figures were reversed, this treachery would never be discharged by General Abacha.

“If we consider General Babangida’s Journey In Service (2025) as his self-written, self-describing Bible to be accepted as the truth and nothing but the truth, then any who believe it are only following its author toward damnation.

“General Babangida’s biggest headache has never been General Abacha, who numerously protected his life and reputation, but his own mind and its creations which earned him the revealing title Evil Genius,” Raees tweeted.
