Former military Head of State, Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida, IBB, has disclosed that there was a tension between former military Head of State, Yakubu Gowon and the late Biafra warlord, Emeka Odumegwu Ojukwu.

Babangida said Gowon’s emergence as Head of State brought about the tension with Ojukwu.

He disclosed that Ojukwu rejected Gowon’s emergence, saying in the absence of the killed Aguyi-Ironsi, a senior Army officer like Brigadier Babafemi Ogundipe should have been made the head of State.
