From Buharis recent Channels TV Interview : Are you sorry for bringing to an end the Shagari government? GMB: No, Im not sorry , because I mentioned why we did it, and we proved our case. Thats a democratic process that could have extended. GMB: So when you are a democracy you are entitled to steal your treasury dry, and put your people into pauperized positions, and destroy institutions, and destroy infrastructure? So you blame Shagari for that coup? GMB: Dont personalize. Ill blame the second republic... For that? GMB: For that. And when we came out we told the nation why and we conducted enquiries, documentary ones, not just hearsay. Source: youtube/watch?v=2_487PhkxUQ (start at 5:37) So he still believes it is ok for the military to overthrow a democratic government if the democratic government is corrupt. Incidentally, many people believe that the current government is also corrupt. If the Generals view is right, then a military coup in 2015 is justified... Do you agree? (I strongly disagree because dictatorship is a greater evil than corruption. You can fight corruption within democracy)
