GENERAL MUHAMMED BUHARI-IDIAGBON REGIME

 

THE 1983 MILLITARY RULE (GENERAL MUHAMMED BUHARI-IDIAGBON REGIME)

On December 31, 1983 the military removed Shagari as President, the action of the military was very popular. The regime had a lot of support because it had removed an unpopular government.

       After a few days in office Buhari administration declared itself an off-shoot of the Muritala-Obasanjo military administration. It adopted the structures of governance of the Muritala-Obasanjo era.

      The Buhari administration analyzed the problems of Nigeria as below:

(i)  Corruption in high places i.e. abuse of office.

(ii)Lack of sufficient patriotism.

(iii)              General indiscipline among the population.

(iv)               Dependence on foreign products and lack of prices in locally produced goods.

(v) Economics mismanagement and reckless borrowing which increased the nation’s debt burden.

(vi)               Heavy public expenditure on personal emoluments due to unjustifiable increase in the number of people employed in the public service.

In order to correct these ills, first, all the politicians of the second republic suspected to have enriched themselves improperly were rounded up and put in detention or jail pending the determination of their innocence. Those found guilty by special tribunals were made to forfeit their ill-gotten wealth to government.

On discipline, the regime introduced War Against Indiscipline (WAI). Public and private cleanliness were emphasized. Individuals were encouraged to clean their surrounding and special days were set aside for environmental sanitation. Heavy fines were imposed on people living in unhygienic surroundings.

       On the economy, a firm grip was placed on it. Severe restrictions were placed on import license and only essential commodities were allowed. Heavy duties were high percentage of Nigeria’s foreign exchange earnings was used to service the debt with the hope of an early payment.

       There was a massive retrenchment and retirement of people in the public service. A number of decrees such as

(a)               Decree 4 which prescribed heavy jail term for publishing any information that was likely to embrace the government.

(b)               Decree 20 which prescribe death sentence for drug smuggler etc, were made

However, some journalists were jailed under 4 and some convicted drugs were actually executed. The indiscriminate arrested and detention of suspects by the National Security Organization (NSO) made everybody to live in fear, fear of arbitrary arrest and detention without trial.

       The Buhari administration which came in as popular regime had become very unpopular and had alienated the generality of the population within a short period of one and half years. The regime had also alienated some senior officers because of its inflexible posture within the armed forces. For these reasons, there was another coup which ended the Buhari reign and brought in the former chief of army staff, Major-general Ibrahim Babangida on August 27, 1985.

BABAGINDA ADMINISTRATION (1985-1993) 

      Babangida retained the structure of decision-making as operated under Buhari, but modified in somewhat. He added the title “president” to the traditional title of “head of state” and commander-in-chief of the armed forces.

       The supreme military council under a new name of “armed forces ruling council” (renamed) remained the highest decision making body. He replaced the position of the Chief and Staff Supreme Headquarters with that of the position of Chief of General Staff (CGS) to be responsible for the political administration of the country and Joint Chief of Staff (JCS) to be responsible for the administrative functions of the armed forces. The administrative started with a strong human-rights posture. Many political detainees were released from detained by (NSO) were released unconditionally, public officers such as governor and politicians who had been detained without trial by the administration were order released or tried and those found guilty were given appropriate jail terms or fines.

        The regime attempted to govern by seeking opinions of Nigeria’s on crucial issues such as the public debate on whether Nigeria ought to take the IMF loan. The loan was finally rejected. The regime also convinced Nigerians of the need to make sacrifices in order to revamp the ailing from 2% to 20% were imposed on the different categories of workers including the armed forces and the police. Import duties were raised on certain items while total ban was placed on others.

There was the introduction of:

1. Structure Adjustment Programme (SAP)

2.  Second tier Foreign Exchange Market (STFEM)

3.  A rigorous process of a new population census

4. The political transition programme, a time-table leading to return to civil rule. E.g. (MAMSSR) September 1987.

Other achievement include

5. Lifting off ban on party politics.

6. Creation of new states, two in 1987, Katsina, and Akwa Ibom and nine in 1991, which are Abia, Kogi, Osun, Delta, Yobe, Taraba, Jigaa and kebbi.

7. Establishment of two part system in Nigeria-the National Republican Convention (NRC) and the Asocial Democratic Party (SDP).

8. Establishment of the program of better life for rural women.

9. Establishment of the directorate of food and rural infrastructure (DFRI) and the National Directorate for Employment (NDE).

10.             Establishment of the Federal Road Safety Commission.

11.             Establishment of the people’s Banks and Community Banks.

12.             Establishment of the Mass Transport Programme to ease the transportation problem in all the states of the federation.

13.             Babangida finally stepped aside for an interim government headed by Earnest Shonekan on August 26, 1993.

The interim National Government

With the annulment of Abiola’s victory on 12june 1993, in the presidential election and subsequent political upheavals, General Ibrahim Babangida was force to step aside for an unelected technocrat Earnest Shonekan as the head of an Interim National government(ING).

       Earnest Shonekan was the head of the Interim national government and commander in chief of the armed forces. There was an executive council that was made up of a team of secretaries (ministers) that failed to earn legitimacy from Nigerians before it was pushed out on November 17, 1993 by Gen. Sanni Abacha.

The Earnest Shonekan government lasted for only three months. The status of the administration was contested in court, and the court ruled that the government was illegal. The minister merely kept the administration going. The government was a failure because the ministers and the elected state governors did not hold allegiance to the head of the Interim National Government (ING). The government was faced with maintaining criticism on the issue of its legitimacy as it neither elected nor military.

 The government lacked international recognition. It was set up by head of state who had left office and there were riots, anarchy, arson disorderliness and political insecurity during the administration of the interim national government.
