Alhaji Sa'idu Barda is a Nigerian politician who was elected on the National Republican Convention (NRC) platform as Governor of Katsina State, Nigeria, holding office between January 1992 and November 1993 during the Nigerian Third Republic. He remained active in politics in the Nigerian Fourth Republic.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Nigerian States )〕 ==Katsina State governor== In the December 1991 elections for governor of Katsina State, Barda defeated Umaru Yar'Adua, the Social Democratic Party (SDP) candidate. Yar'Adua later went on to be elected president in April 2007. Umaru's elder brother General Shehu Yar'Adua, then a prominent politician with presidential ambitions, had failed to give his full backing to Umaru's bid. Barda was favored by the military president at the time, General Ibrahim Babangida. Barda completed construction of a flour mill in Katsina, initiated in 1981 but later abandoned. In June 1993 Barda set up a committee on the Rehabilitation of Education "to look into the educational decadence in schools ... and proffer solutions." He also laid the foundation for the Othman Dan Folio Institute, intended to be the first Islamic university in Nigeria but later abandoned. Barda supported Babangida's annulment of the 12 June 1993 election of MKO Abiola as president, saying "blood will flow on an unprecedented scale" if the annulment were to be reversed. The political struggles that followed the annulment led to the coup in which General Sani Abacha took power in November 1993, when all elected governors were dismissed. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Saidu Barda」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
