| dc.description | This Historical document (text in igbo language) preserves the inaugural speeches delivered by Alhaji Shehu Aliyu Shagari upon assuming office as the first executive President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria on October 1, 1979. Recorded both at the Tafawa Balewa Square in Lagos and subsequently broadcast to the nation via radio and television, the text outlines the core vision, policy framework, and administrative priorities of the newly elected civilian government following thirteen years of military rule. President Shagari extends gratitude to the outgoing military administration led by General Olusegun Obasanjo for a successful transition of power and calls upon all Nigerian citizens to embrace unity, peace, and collective national development. The addresses articulate comprehensive strategies addressing critical sectors of national life, including agricultural reform to achieve food self-sufficiency, housing development schemes, public education expansion, and economic industrialization. Furthermore, the text underscores Nigeria's foreign policy commitments, emphasizing solidarity with African nations, the liberation struggles against apartheid and oppression across the continent, and active participation in international bodies such as the United Nations, OAU, ECOWAS, and OPEC. Through these speeches, the document serves as an important primary resource capturing a pivotal democratic milestone in Nigerian political history. | |
