Babangida & Mamman Vatsa: The Story of a Cordial Relationship that Turned Sour and Ended in Death
In this edition of BIH we bring to you the story of the cordial relationship which existed for many years between Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida and Mamman Vatsa but which ended in the execution of Mamman Vatsa by firing squad during the military presidency of his friend - Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida. We discuss their growing up years, their education in the same schools, their career progression in the military, the relationship between both of their families and the events that led to the execution of Mamman Vatsa. Babangida and Mamman were high ranking military officers in Nigeria.

Vasta was a very educated soldier in the Nigerian Army. He said " first he owns Abuja but now Abuja owns his external life ". May his Soul rest internal life. AMEN !!!!!.
Probably there is no other person apart from Babangida who could be so heartless. Vatsa was more than a brother. May God bless Vatsa s soul.

According to Lord Acton "Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely". It's so unfortunate that Mamman Vatsa, Mariam Babangida and Sufiya Vatsa have all gone to the great beyond. It is now left for IBB who is still partially alive, to reconcile himself with his God.

The Yoruba word says "eniyan meji kii padanu iro. Ti eniti a nparo fun ko ba mo pe nwon nparo fun ohun, eniti o nparo mo wipe ohun nparo fun enikeji". This translates to mean that if a man tells lies to another person, the person who's being told lies may not know that he's being lied to but the person telling lies will know that he's telling lies to the other person. So two people cannot lose in a situation of falsehood. In the Vatsa coup story, the truth was hidden and it is still hidden but someone and some people knew the truth and the lies. The reality is that ambitious military men wasted not only the nation's resources but also the lives of vibrant Nigerians through coups. They failed woefully to solve all the problems they pretended to have to solve. They came not to help Nigerians but to satisfy their selfish ambitions. I am sure the Nigerian history has no good place for the military in political governance. Right from the first coup of January 15 1966, they set themselves on the path of self destruction and plunged the nation to avoidable civil war. Who cares about their case of dog eats dog. Everything about them is good riddance to bad rubbish.
Mamman Vatsa, Dele Giwa, et al. and those who are buried in mass graves are daily crying justice.God will punish IBB.

The question now is who betrayed. The friend who knew of a coup & didn’t stop it or a friend who knew his friend will be executed if found guilty and didn’t stop it. I will find that piece and it’s reference. So you guys can read. It was from Abacha’s ADC, Al-mustapha

@user-nw5tb3pz8q what more proof do you need? Do you know that for anyone to be executed in Nigeria a governor or president would have to sign their death warrant? For this reason, so many prisoners never see the noose because many governors don't want blood on their hands considering they might end up getting someone unfairly killed due to how unfair the Nigerian judiciary is. That said, the fact that Mamman's death warrant was signed by IBB for unknown evidence of treason speaks volume. There's no doubt that the corrupt state of Nigeria will never try IBB but God's judgement is fair and closer than he thinks.

All of Vatsa children with the exception of his last daughter died prematurely. The wife died of anguish as well vowing never to set her feet in Minna so long as Babangida was still alive which she never did. The whole Vatsa community has never and may never recovered from the unfortunate execution of Vatsa. What is more intriguing and heart wrecking was that their was no evidence and this has comes to light now according to both General Domkat Bali and Lt Colonel Moses Effiong. Again, the events that preceded the investigation clearly shows that Vatsa was targeted. I learnt recently that Vatsa was actually cleared by SIP before the SIP was overruled by Babangida. This eventually led to his court-martial led by General Ndiomu. That Vatsa was composed through out the trial wearing a constant smile and reminding Babangida and his Tribunal judges that what ever their verdict may be, which he can already discern, it was not going to be his final hour, and with those words he left his captors and executors with a smile. On the 5th/03/1986. He was executed, thrown into a ditch, had acid pour on him and buried like a dead animal all on the order of Babangida who make sure the whole epistle were video for his personal viewing and pleasure. Only Babangida knows why he did what he did. Coup which was non existent in the first place was never the reason why Vatsa was executed. Like Vatsa said, God judgement is ultimate.
in the order side of victory and financial freedom and independence in CHRIST JESUS AMEN !!!
The story is epic 🎉
Kudos to my late uncle Major General Henry Adefope who is from that era.rest in peace uncle. .

Even if Vatsa was guilty why couldn’t he be forgiven

Great narration Blaise compaore betrayed Sankara Shit things happen to good people 😢
What a very SAD story! One would blame all past administrations for not conducting an investigation into this SAD event. As a constitutional democracy, one would expect congress or the courts to conduct an investigation and prosecute those guilty. We have a lot of corrupt and guilty criminals, currently walking free in our beloved country today, without prosecution. If we are a country that believes in the rule of LAW, these people and events needs to be investigated. We owe this to our democratic principle and believes. The Courts an Congress needs to OPEN this cases and prosecute. Thank you!

My submission: Assuming Vatsa truly committed the crime for which he was executed in 1986, what did Babangida do to rehabilitate his late friend's family? Nothing! The wife and children of Vatsa endured great hardship and sorrow to the bitter end of their stay on planet Earth. In the end, no man is immortal! The Babangida of this day is a 'living dead man'. Vatsa, MKO & Abacha are waiting for him in the great beyond.

He was not guilty, he was set up by Babangida and his cronies and I tell you these below. Vatsa was used as scape goat to give Babangida the latitude to stay in power for as long as he wanted because Vatsa who was seen as his Siamese twin executed was to send a strong signal to the rest of the army not to contemplate any stupid. Remember Vatsa was in Mecca when Babangida orchestrate a coup and overthrow Buhari. Colonel Halilu Akilu who was the director of DMI told his surbodinate officer Lt Colonel Christian Oche to shadow Vatsa upon his return from Mecca. This clearly shows that machinery was already set in motion upon his return for what eventually happens to him (Vatsa). The same Christian Oche was abandon by his Superior on whose order he set up Vatsa. He ( Christian Oche) went to his grave which he shared with 9 other colleagues believing he was used and dump by those he was working for. Again, the arrest of most of the officers implicated in the coup took place a week before Vatsa was arrested. Now if he was guilty he probably would have run away to extricate himself but he didn't do that. 2 days after his arrest Even before the SIP conclude their investigation, the Vatsa family were already send out from there official residence indicating a predetermined outcome of where the investigation was heading. Vatsa was I recently discovered was actually cleared by the SIP but the SIP was overruled by Babangida and that led to Vatsa court-martial. 2 key witnesses indeed confess that their was no evidence of Vatsa involvement and that Babangida prosecutors used circumstantial evidence like Vatsa been introduced in private ceremony by an MC as the next president of Nigeria, that Vatsa also gave C of O of land in Abuja to some officers to induce them but incidentally some of the prosecuting officers and Tribunal judges also received C of O from Vatsa. Look i have done extensive research on the whole issue and it clearly shows Vatsa was murdered. Finally, suppose Vatsa and others were guilty. Their guilt would have fall under treasonable felony punishable by long prison term not treason which carries death penalty because there was no coup yet. Vatsa wear ever present smile reminding Babangida and his team of military collaborators he was not afraid of them and that he was tired of defending himself over a pack of phantom coup trial and that "his detention and execution will not be his final hour for he has God promise on that ". And with those words he left his captors and executors with smile even as he was been executed. His troubles didn't end their as he was untie from the stake and his lifeless body was thrown in to a ditch, had acid pour on him and buried like an animal all on the order of Babangida who make sure the whole epistle was video for his personal viewing and pleasure. Very traumatizing and why all Vatsa children died prematurely except for the last daughter who left the country to settle in London with her husband.

You don't take chances in the military especially in the mist of power struggle,IBB was very aware.Vatsa knew something he was not completely innocent.Check out the story of Thomas Sankara and Blais Compaore.
What i understood in this history,is vatsa known something is the reason why he wake up his children's hugged them,and hugged his wife he known he can't come back home again,
Listening at this has created hatred to ibb
I heard that Babangida is still alive
They were like twins..,really sad their friendly had to end in that sorry manner..,IBB was mean
Just like Blaise Compaore and Thomas Sankara...ended in tears.. cowardness
Now babangida has achieve all his selfish interest what is the next.he is already old and almost closest to his death.what if he died and went to meet vatsa as an angel of light who is going to direct where he should spend his internity what will become of him?
Babangiga's hands is a fountain of bloods. He has no second thought when it comes to killing of whose ox is gored.
Getting to really know this story today. IBB could av sent him on exile . Why kill him.
The only person to trust in life is almighty Allah.This is a big lesson to everyone that no friend is to be trusted.
This will make a powerful classic movie if a good director is involve..
IBB relatively executed his bossom friend Mamman Jiya Vatsa not because of what he allegedly did, but for what he was capable of doing even if he was jailed for life & not executed; as he(IBB) revealed in one of the interviews he granted a Nigerian media magazine. He said "Vatsa was stubborn." In my opinion I think he(IBB) applied the defensive rule of "neutralize first or be nutralized." Though it's rather a sad one considering their cordial bond.
Babangida you see what you are facing today is because of the execution of Mamman Vatsa
My question is that what did Mariam Babangida do in this situation ?.. I'm sure she kept silent becos I can bet the two wives would be very close also
Did you say implicated?, that means you still need to get more facts about what really led to mamma vastas death.
IBB are soaked with blood in his hands. The Nigeria terminator in the modern history. He killed any person he considered a threat to his position
Babangida of course is a beast to kill his childhood friend. 😢😢😢
