ABSTRACT
In this study, press freedom and fundamental human rights mean generally that every individual should have the rights to freedom, which make a society. But where the rights of the press freedom and fundamental human right are fail to given, it will mar a society 100 questionnaires was shared to hundred people. The respondents were students, politician working in the government house and general public. The questionnaire was also distributed thus students 40, journalist 20 and the general public 40, these were used to find out whether Obasanjo civilian administration give support to press freedom and fundamental human right. Raw scores of student. Journalist and the general public were collected and analyzed. Results of the analysis showed that, there is partly freedom of press and fundamental human right in Olusegun Obasanjo civilian administration than to that of Sani Abacha and Badamosi Babangida military regime. Recommendation where made based on the findings which include among other things that the government should try to advanced the cause of the press freedom from the level it is today by granting the press free hand to its duty. Again the government should take a second look as its stand on Sharia law in some states like Zamfara state. Finally the government should prosecute those who violate human rights from the past till down and the press should do its work according to the ethics of their profession. And people should be educated more to know their fundamental human rights. It is hope that if these recommendation are implemented, there will be noticeable improvement in the society since press is the watch dog of the society.

1.0 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Press freedom and fundamental human rights are two terms that can make or mar a society.
Press freedom and fundamental human rights can make a society where they are given their right place and proper attention. In the same, vein, the two can mar society where they are not given their proper place and respect. Infact they are like two sides of the coin.
A respect for fundamental human rights thus becomes a respect for human person. To understand how fundamental human rights work in a society is to understand the position of press freedom in that society. Because a society cannot have fundamental human rights in operation without first of all....================================================================
