The Role of Military institution in the Nigerian Political life

Abstract

The intervention in the military institute represents a great role in the Nigerian political life since 1960. There are many reasons behind this domination. The First is that many African militants participated in liberating their countries from colonization. The second is that they tried to stay in power as long as they could stay through the rule of one party. There fore, they depend on the process of political and economic reform to get rid of military rule that dominated the Nigerian Political life to be a civilian state.
