*And one school of thought will want me to believe that the worst civilian rule is better than the best military regime.*

He did all these in 8 years, paid fuel subsidy, maintained a good dollar to Naira exchange and paid pension/ salary to workers.

But after 24 years of democracy, we are worst of as a nation.

I stand with democracy. We would have exceeded the above mentioned cases if democracy was not derailed in 1983.

Military regime is better than what we have now!

Most of them defending military rule weren't born at the time. Leave am, democracy sweet.
