Muhammadu Buhari: The Nigerian Legacy (2015-2023)
Muhammadu Buhari: The Nigerian Legacy, 2015-2023 is a five-volume account of the Buhari administration and the years in which Nigeria's democratic state was tested by recession, insecurity, infrastructure decay, institutional weakness, social pressure and the difficult expectations of change.
The work presents the administration as a central chapter in Nigeria's contemporary history. Across five volumes, it follows the policies, programmes, reforms, projects, achievements, contradictions and challenges that defined governance between 2015 and 2023. It examines the President's development vision, his political will, his methods of statecraft, and the institutional choices through which his government sought to stabilise the economy, rebuild infrastructure, deepen social intervention, confront terrorism and insurgency, and strengthen the machinery of public administration.
These volumes move across the major sectors of national life: economy, security, infrastructure, agriculture, power, transport, social investment, anti-corruption, public finance, federal governance and Nigeria's place in the world. They also engage the pressures that complicated the period: two recessions, revenue weakness, oil-price instability, COVID-19, ethno-political tension, banditry, public distrust, partisan contestation and the uneven capacities of the Nigerian state.
At the centre of the work is Muhammadu Buhari himself: soldier, opposition figure, democratic President and principal actor in a period of intense national argument. The volumes do not treat his administration as a set of isolated projects. They place it within the wider story of Nigeria's search for order, development, institutional discipline and national renewal.
Written with documentary depth, narrative clarity and historical perspective, Muhammadu Buhari: The Nigerian Legacy, 2015-2023 offers a substantial record of governance in the Buhari years. It is a study of power, policy, development and consequence, and a major contribution to Nigerian history.
