Achievements of Military Rule In Nigeria

The military could be credited with some achievements during the period of military rule. The intervention of the military in Nigerian politics saved the country from total disintegration on several occasions. A case in point the failure of the civilian government to resolve the Western Region crises in 1965. The military coup of 15th January, 1966 might have saved Nigeria from the apparent incompetence of the political class.
