Johnson Gbende Faleyimu-Master Thesis UNESCO CHAIR OF PHILOSOPHY FOR PEACE UNIVERSITAT JAUME I MILITARY INTERVENTION IN NIGERIAN POLITICAL SYSTEM: ITS IMPACT ON DEMOCRATIC DEVELOPMENT (1993-1999) MASTER THESIS Student: Johnson Gbende Faleyimu Supervisor: Dr Jose Angel Ruiz Jimenez Tutor: Dr Irene Comins Mingol Castellón, July 2014 Abstract Key words: Military, intervention, democracy and Nigerian politics A study of literature on civil-military relations in Nigeria reveals a question: why does the military intervene in the politics of some countries but remain under firm civilian control in others? This thesis delves into military intervention in Nigerian Politics and its general impact on democracy (1993-1999). The military exploits its unique and pivotal position by demanding greater institutional autonomy and involvement when the civilian leadership fails. The main purpose of this study is to discourage military intervention in Nigeria politics, and to encourage them to focus their primary assignment of lethal force, which includes use of weapons, in defending its country by combating actual or perceived threats against the state. i Dedication This thesis is dedicated to my late parents High Chief J.F Olijogun and Olori Meminat Marian Olijogun ii Acknowledgements My sincere gratitude goes to God and all who contributed to the successful completion of this thesis work. Very special thanks to my supervisor, Dr Jose Angel Ruiz Jimenez of University of Granada, for his brilliant guidance and encouragement-what a wonderful display of wealth of experience-without which this thesis would not have been possible. My profound appreciation goes to the lecturers and staffs of the International Master’s Degree Program in Peace, Conflict and Development studies at the Universitat Jaume I, who gave me all the skills and knowledge that are required to carry out an academic research and other academic endeavours. These thanks would not be complete without mentioning some dear friends, colleagues individuals and my fellow Peace Studies students like, Prize, George, Arie, Matt, Garby, Gabe, Lida, Marissa, Iris, Haruka, Felista, Arely, Silvester, Donaldson, Akudo, Ganiyu Olafimihan, Ganiyu Lawal, Kofo Adeoye, Bimbo Akerele, and Tope Awodigede who contributed immensely both morally and spiritually to the success of this thesis. I also acknowledge the assistance rendered by the following people Mr Segun Ogundele, Mr Aminu Rasak and Mrs Folakemi Oladoja during the field work by providing me with the necessary information and documentation May I use this opportunity to thank Dr. Jennifer Murphy, Dr Fatuma Ahmed, Dr Sidi Omar, Dr Sofia Herrero Rico, Adela Amela, and a host of others for their moral and academic supports during the course of my study at Universitat Jaume I; may God bless and reward you immensely. iii Special thanks to my dearest loving wife (Stefani Aina), and my children for their understanding, they are the brain behind this great achievement. I owe you all, God bless you. Finally, in a more special and respectful way, I wish to thank my parents (High Chief Joseph faleyimu Olijogun and Olori Meninat Marian Olijogun) of blesses memory, for given me a solid educational background that accorded me to this level and my special friends, motivators and my siblings (Adekunle Ojotu, Ojo Ojotu, Oladipo Ojotu, Olawande Faleyimu, Olamosunle Faleyimu and Oladehinde Faleyimu)

  • The Making of Sani Abacha There
    To the memory of Bashorun M.K.O Abiola (August 24, 1937 to July 7, 1998); and the numerous other Nigerians who died in the hands of the military authorities during the struggle to enthrone democracy in Nigeria. ‘The cause endures, the HOPE still lives, the dream shall never die…’ onderful: It is amazing how Nigerians hardly learn frWom history, how the history of our politics is that of oppor - tunism, and violations of the people’s sovereignty. After the exit of British colonialism, a new set of local imperi - alists in military uniform and civilian garb assumed power and have consistently proven to be worse than those they suc - ceeded. These new vetoists are not driven by any love of coun - try, but rather by the love of self, and the preservation of the narrow interests of the power-class that they represent. They do not see leadership as an opportunity to serve, but as an av - enue to loot the public treasury; they do not see politics as a platform for development, but as something to be captured by any means possible. One after the other, these hunters of fortune in public life have ended up as victims of their own ambitions; they are either eliminated by other forces also seeking power, or they run into a dead-end. In the face of this leadership deficit, it is the people of Nigeria that have suffered; it is society itself that pays the price for the imposition of deranged values on the public space; much ten - sion is created, the country is polarized, growth is truncated.

  • Coups: the Victims, the Survivors
    COUPS THE VICTIMS THE SURVIVORS Page 1 of 12 COUPS: THE VICTIMS, THE SURVIVORS THE mere mention of coup d’etat, the unconstitutional and violent overthrow of incumbent governments, sends down shivers and evokes traumatic memories from any country’s nationals. It recreates those anguished images that overwhelmed the populace when the finger pulled the trigger. Every citizen is haunted by mortal fear of the day’s uncertainty and discusses it in hushed tones, cautious that nobody eavesdrops. The penalty for participation is maximum: death. It, therefore, makes it a condemnable high risk venture. But some initiators still damn the consequences. It is all because it possesses limitless attractions and guarantees inexhaustible opportunities. Its charm is almost irresistible. Those who get hooked hardly would divorce their other collaborators. They, somewhat, lose every sense of reason and would muster whatever resources to actualise such a dream. When successful, they become instant heroes. Conversely, they are society’s villains once the plot is aborted by superior strategies or gun-power of the man in the saddle. Curiously, the coupists seek escape routes. Once arrested, investigated and convicted, they begin the final journey to the firing range or long periods of incarceration. Suddenly, the world invokes sympathy from all quarters to avoid blood-letting. Coups have their prizes and the other prices. Usually, in every attempt, there are victims and the survivors. Afterall, human beings in authority are the targets. The mission is almost always to eliminate the regime’s henchmen and take over power or to simply shove them aside without wasting lives.
