IBB Campaigners Assured of Support in Rivers From Okon Bassey in Port Harcourt The National Executive Committee and Trustees of IBB Vision 2007 weekend stormed Rivers State in continuation of its nation wide campaign to solicit support for the re-election of former military president, Ibrahim Babangida in 2007. The team led by the National Chairman, IBB Vision 2007, Alhaji Hameed Akama was hosted by the Rivers State Patron of IBB Vision 2007, Mr. Alfred Yesin. Yesin, a frontline politician in the State described the former military President as the epitome and melting pot of grassroots politics in Nigeria. According to him, during the period Babangida ruled the country, he exhibited a detribalized leadership style and painstakingly instituted peopl- oriented programmes. He further obeserved that the decentralization of government by the Babangida regime saw the creation of more states and local government in the country thereby bringing government closer to the people at the grassroots. Among the numerous landable achievements of IBB while in office, Yesin said was the enactment of policies and programmes which accorded respect and solidarity to human and environmental rights in the country. Recalling the endorsement of the Ogoni Bill of Rights, the state patron of IBB Vision 2007 also added that the former military President promptly responded to the yearnings of the oil rich minority states by increasing the revenue derivation principle from 1.5 percent to 3 percent. Yesin, who said IBB demonstrated love and support for the South-south geopolitical zone, called on the people of the zone and entire federation to support the presidential ambition of IBB for 2007 project.
