The ten monographs in this series are devoted to a critical review of the regime of General Ibrahim Badamasi Babagandi, arguably the most controversial military dictator in Nigeria's political development and whose political and socio-economic 'engineering' efforts in the period 1985-1993 left everyone and the economy gasping and groping for a direction. In all, Malthouse Monographs for Africa (MAMA) Numbers 1-10 represent the most serious attempt yet at unravelling all that took place in Nigeria in that period, and should thus, hopefully, generate further exchange of views and discussions. The monographs contained in this volume are: Corruption and Corrupt Practice: Institutionalization and Legitimation under the Babangida Administration; The Military and Democracy in Nigeria: The Political Bureau Report; Politics of the Annulment of June 12 Presidential Election in Nigeria.
