CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1   BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

 Nigeria is a Federal Republic modeled after the United States, with executive power exercised by the president and with influences from the Westminster System model in the composition and management of the upper and lower houses of the bicameral legislature. However, the President of Nigeria is both head of state and head of government, and of a multi-party system. Nigerian politics takes place within a framework of a federal, presidential, representative democratic republic, whereby Executive power is exercised by the government. Legislative power is vested in both the government and the two chambers of the legislature, the House of Representatives and the Senate. Together the two chambers make up the law-making body in Nigeria called the National Assembly. The highest judiciary arm of government in Nigeria is the Supreme Court of Nigeria. The National Assembly serves as a check on the executive arm of government.

1.2   STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

One of the major problems the researcher observed in this research work is the attitude of constitutional amendment in Nigeria. The Constitution of the USA for example has been amended for just two times in 230 years. The above situation is completely different from what is happening in Nigeria. Even before 1999, Nigeria constitution had been amended for over four times. Attempts were also made in 2006 by former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s administration amend the 1999 Constitution again. All this amendment of constitution in Nigeria by our leader is to favour their own selfish desires. However, the successful implementation of any constitution depends on how much it is respected by those whose duty is to uphold it.

Another problem with Nigerian politics is that; those running the political affair of the country seem not to be politically oriented. And according to Chief Obafemi Awolowo (1956) “Men Sana Incorpo Sano” (people with sound mind and memory) are to be entrusted with the affairs of the public. While most of them did not study political science, public administration or other government and political related course in higher institutions. They are not professional politicians; therefore, they do not make professional decision. A good example is the sudden remover of oil subsidy which brought about a devastating situation in the entire country. Political decision ought to be taken prudently and based on plan.

1.3. OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY

The objective of this study is basically as follow:

To assess the function and impact of Nigerian government and politics, how it has helped in the development of both in the federal, state and local government level.

1.4. SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

The researcher statements of the study can enrich the literature on the Nigerian government and politics and enhance people and student understands of the concept. This study will be useful to most countries that need to know the nature of government and politics in their country also in their local government and state government. The president of this country can use the finding and the recommendation of this study to improve the qualities of this country.

1.5 LIMITATION OF THE STUDY

Time factor: The time giving is too infinitesimal for me to carry out the project work accurately.

Finance: This also restraints me in carrying out my research work as being expected.

1.6 SCOPE OF THE STUDY
