dc.description.abstractThe relationship between the government and the press is complex. "Those who do (policy-makers) need those who report and comment (the press) on what is done or should be done." "The Power of Comment," by Douglas Hurd, British Foreign Secretary, in a speech at the Travelers Club, September 9, 1993. This work examines the role of the Nigerian press as a domestic source of foreign policy in the final decision by the Nigerian government to intervene in 1990, in the Liberian civil war. Many factors contributed to the final decision, some of which were external, but the debate in Nigeria as to whether the administration of General Ibrahim Babangida should spearhead a military peace-keeping force or not was largely led by, and conducted on the pages of the Newspapers. The leading ones being the ten that were selected for this work. Their editorials were divided between outright support and round condemnation of government.en_US
