Indiscipline, a reason Military is better than Civilian Government (Nigeria as an example)

Nigeria, a nation with immense potential, has faced several challenges throughout its history, particularly when it comes to governance and indiscipline. This blog post aims to discuss the argument that military rule is better than civilian government in addressing indiscipline, using Nigeria as an example. However, it is important to note that this perspective does not undermine the value of democracy or advocate for a return to military rule, but rather seeks to explore the potential strengths of military governance in specific circumstances.

1. Swift and decisive actions

In Nigeria, the military has often been credited with its ability to swiftly and decisively tackle instances of indiscipline. Military rule generally operates under a centralized command structure, enabling effective decision-making and rapid response to societal issues. Civilian governments, on the other hand, often face bureaucratic challenges that hinder their ability to address indiscipline promptly, leading to a perceived sense of slowness or indecisiveness.

2. Structure and discipline within the military

As an institution, the military is built upon principles of structure, hierarchy, and discipline. This framework instills a sense of orderliness among its personnel, which can be beneficial in dealing with indiscipline within society. Civilian governments may not have the same level of structure, making it challenging to enforce discipline consistently and effectively.

3. Perceived accountability

During periods of military rule, the idea of accountability may be perceived differently. While civilian governments are accountable to their citizens through elections and other democratic mechanisms, military regimes often prioritize stability and discipline in society. This can be seen as a trade-off, where citizens may be willing to forego some aspects of democratic accountability in favor of a safer and more orderly environment.

4. An antidote to corruption

Corruption is a significant challenge faced by many developing nations, including Nigeria. Some argue that military rule could provide a temporary solution to curbing corruption in governance. Military regimes can implement stricter anti-corruption measures without being influenced by political pressures or vested interests. This approach, however, is not foolproof and can lead to abuses of power if left unchecked.

Conclusion

While this blog post acknowledges the potential benefits of military rule in addressing indiscipline, it is essential to maintain a nuanced perspective. Democracy, despite its flaws, provides citizens with a platform to exercise their rights, voice their concerns, and hold governments accountable. The ultimate goal is to strive for a civilian government that incorporates the strengths of military governance, such as decisiveness, structure, and discipline, while preserving the democratic values and principles that ensure the well-being of the nation.
