Nigeria's relations with Britain was at a very low ebb under the Buhari Regime. Major General Muhammadu Buhari was the military ruler of Nigeria from 1983 to 1985, and during his tenure, he adopted a strong anti-colonial stance. Buhari was critical of Britain's involvement in Nigeria's internal affairs, particularly its support for the opposition and its alleged role in fomenting ethnic and religious tensions in the country. He also accused Britain of meddling in the country's political and economic affairs and called for a more equitable relationship between the two countries. As a result of these tensions, Nigeria's relations with Britain deteriorated, and there were several diplomatic spats between the two countries. The strained relationship between Nigeria and Britain during the Buhari regime was a reflection of the country's desire for greater independence and sovereignty.
