President Muhammadu Buhari has inspired a new word in the English lexicon. The new word is ‘Buharism’. With the feat, Buhari has made history as the first Nigerian to have a political term – “Buharism” named after him, entered into the dictionary. Meanwhile, online encyclopaedia – Wikipedia – has explained Buharism as a term ”rooted in the politics of Nigeria, referring to the economic principles and the political ideology of the military government of Nigeria headed by General Muhammadu Buhari from 31 December 1983 to 27 August 1985. ”This ideology shares common features with fascism; the government was a right-wing nationalist government that pursued corporatist economic programs and curtailed personal freedoms. “Economic reforms were characterised as moving the political economy away from the control of a ‘parasitic’ elite, and into the control of an emerging ‘productive’ class. “Buharism represented a two-way struggle: with external global capitalism and with its internal agents and advocates.” See screenshots about the concept of Buharism below.
