The Sheep's Revolution: Paradox of Democratic Consolidation and Environmental Regulations in Post-transition Nigeria

Tayo Adedoyin

The entry of democratic rule in 1999, the expectations of Nigerians were very high. The dominant outlook among the masses was simply positive in comparative terms with the extensive era of military despotism, where only a miniature fraction could access the doorway to a noble life. During the military regimes, the aspirations for an inclusive government have been strident, while exclusion of the popular side, at the same time, remained very brutal. However, the political cosmos of the country has been relatively relaxed by the transition to democratic rule. But, while that elevated the optimism of some groups that had hitherto, been stifled or marginalized, it also raised some noticeable dangers in the boundless struggle for resources and power, that characterized the democratic system.
