Summary
| Description |
English: Made by CICAM in 1981, commemorating the January 1981 state visit of Nigerian President Shehu Usman Aliyu Shagari to Cameroon. It features the twin portraits of Cameroonian President Ahmadou Ahidjo and President Shagari. Elected as part of Obasinjo's return from military rule (since 1966), Shagari led the Nigerian Second Republic until he was overthrown on the last day of 1983. Ahidjo was President of Cameroon from independence until pushed into exile by his Prime Minister Paul Biya, who remains in power today. Both Shagari and Ahidjo were Fulani, from the north of their nations. Despite the smiling faces, in May 1981 the two neighbors almost went to war after 5 Nigerian soldiers were killed in a border clash in the disputed Bakassi peninsula. CICAM 80325 |
