Abstract
The article "Nigeria's Fourth Republic, 1999-2021: A Militarised Democracy" by Michael Nwankpa provides a critical analysis of Nigeria's political system, highlighting the influence of the military on the country's democracy. Nwankpa's work delves into the connections between the military and political power in Nigeria, emphasizing the prevalence of violence and militarization in the country. The author argues for a reevaluation of Nigeria's adoption of liberal democracy, proposing a return to traditional African democracy at the local level as a potential solution to the current challenges faced by the nation.
