There is a new celebrity in town, his name is Ibrahim Babangida. No, he is not a musician, neither is he an actor or a content creator, IBB is in fact, a politician who recently discovered that he had some writing skills.
In a very compelling manner, IBB crafted his life journey into a publication, one that has become the talk of the town. Or could it be the many secrets he exposed in the book?
Well, we will find out soon enough.
Alright, folks, grab your popcorn – because we’re about to dive into a book that might just be more thrilling than your favorite political drama.
You see, A Journey of Service, written by none other than the former military ruler, Ibrahim Babangida (or IBB, as we like to call him), is not your average autobiography. Oh no, it’s packed with secrets, surprises, and, lest we forget, some jaw-dropping revelations about Nigerian politics.
Now, we all know politics can be as complicated as trying to understand why the traffic in Lagos never seems to make sense. But IBB’s book? It’s like opening a treasure chest, filled with stories that will make you wonder, ‘Wait, did that really happen?
So, buckle up! We’re going to spill the tea on the hidden secrets of Nigerian politics that have been lurking in the shadows, straight from the pages of A Journey of Service.
You might think you know the story, but trust me, the plot twists in this book are wilder than any Netflix series. Let’s get into it!
Did you notice President Bola Tinubu seated firmly beside IBB during the book launch?
What lesson does that teach you?
You see, in politics, there is no permanent friend, and no permanent foe.
The Game Of Politics
Don’t forget, Tinubu was MKO Abiola’s right hand man during the election which IBB annulled for no reason.
But there was Tinubu in 2025, seated with his one time sworn enemy. Or perhaps, these narratives are just pushed into the media to confuse the citizens while the politicians hide behind the curtain.

This brings us directly to the second point. Could it be true that the Nigerian politicians push false narratives in the media?
There is a trending controversy on social media about the Igbo Coup that took place in Nigeria, or so the coup was labeled.
It was when IBB’s book was unveiled that Nigerians learnt the real truth about that coup and those that plotted it.
The thing is, everything IBB said in his book about that coup seems to contradict all that Nigerians knew.
Imagine the shock when you realise that all you have been told for decades may not have been true.
Well, let’s leave you to ponder over these little observations.
