A. Shagari administration
B. Shonekan administration
C. Murtala regime
D. Aguiyi-Ironsi regime
Correct Answer:
Option C – Murtala regime
Explanation
Nigeria’s concern for decolonization in Africa was responsible for her abandonment of pro-west policy during the Murtala regime.
Nigeria during this period remarkably marked clear departure from the pro-West policy of the previous administrations. Nigerian students are now allowed to receive their education in both West and the Socialist countries of the Eastern bloc. The Soviet Union built Ajaokuto steel plant, etc.
