Causes of military intervention in politics in Nigeria?

Answer 1

A military is an organization authorized by its greater society to use lethal force, usually including use of weapons, in defending its country by combating actual or perceived threats. The military may have additional functions of use to its greater society, such as advancing a political agenda e.g. communism during cold war era, supporting or promoting economic expansion through Imperialism, and as a form of internal social control. As an adjective the term "military" is also used to refer to any property or aspect of a military. Militaries often function as societies within societies, by having their own military communities.

A military invention is an invention that was first created by a military. There are many inventions that were originally created by the military but are now used by civilians.

BEFORE the infamous military incursion into governance in Nigeria in 1966, life was good and expectation for a better and greater nation was high.

The regional leaders between 1960 and 1966 were competing to out-do one another in their respective regions. As a growing up school boy between 1960 and 1970 in my town,Iwo, of then Western Region now in Osun State, I enjoyed the good things the Western regional government under Chief Obafemi Awolowo, the first premier of the region offered.
