  • The Doctrine of Fedralism and the Clamour for Restructuring of Nigeria for Good Governance: Issues and Challenges
    International Journal of Advanced Academic Research | Social & Management Sciences | ISSN: 2488-9849 Vol. 4, Issue 4 (April 2018) THE DOCTRINE OF FEDRALISM AND THE CLAMOUR FOR RESTRUCTURING OF NIGERIA FOR GOOD GOVERNANCE: ISSUES AND CHALLENGES Ebiziem, Jude Ebiziem Department of Political Science, Alvan Ikoku Federal College of Education, Owerri Nigeria. E-mail: [email protected] +2348035077757 Onyemere, Fineboy Ezenwoko National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN) [email protected] +2348025172269 ABSTRACT The paper “the doctrine of federalism and the clamour for restructuring of Nigeria for good governance” draws our attention to the recent agitations by various groups on the path of true federalism and good governance in Nigeria. The broad objectives of this paper is to examine the Nigeria structure of federalism in recent time and identify the factors affecting incessant agitations, and determine the process of restructuring Nigeria for good governance. The paper reviewed relevant related literature and adopted K.C Wheare’s theory of federalism, as its theoretical framework, while its methods of research were basically descriptive and historical designs. The qualitative data were mostly generated largely from the documentary sources. The paper revealed among others, that the calls for restructuring is borne out of some perceived levels of injustice, inequality and discontentment, witnessed by Nigeria society as a result of bad leadership and faulty federalism which has brought myriads of socio-political and economic problems and has resulted to incessant fallouts between various regions, ethnic groups and federal government. The paper recommends inter alia; that although, Nigeria is a federation, there is need for central government and the federating units to understand their differences, build consensus and adopt measures that would accommodate all and enhance good governance.

  • Governing “Ethnicized” Public Sphere: Lessons from the Nigerian Case
    CODESRIA 12th General Assembly Governing the African Public Sphere 12e Assemblée générale Administrer l’espace public africain 12a Assembleia Geral Governar o Espaço Público Africano ةيعمجلا ةيمومعلا ةيناثلا رشع ﺣﻜﻢ اﻟﻔﻀﺎء اﻟﻌﺎم اﻹﻓﺮﻳﻘﻰ Governing “Ethnicized” Public Sphere: Lessons from the Nigerian Case Orji Nkwachukwu Ebonyi State University 07-11/12/2008 Yaoundé, Cameroun Abstract This paper analyzes the role of power-sharing in governing the Nigerian public sphere. It examines the meaning, actors, procedures and practices of power-sharing in Nigeria. The paper assesses the opportunities and challenges arising from the use of power-sharing as a method of governing the public sphere and highlights the lessons that Nigeria’s experience presents to other African countries struggling with the challenge of ethnic diversity. The paper argues that power-sharing as it is being practiced in Nigeria widens the asymmetrical and oligarchic power of the dominant elite groups, creates a dependency syndrome, and hampers the growth of democracy. It contends that the Nigerian case exposes the contradictions and limitations of power-sharing as an institutional approach to the regulation of the public sphere. Introduction Nigeria’s heritage of ethnic diversity has had an overwhelming impact on the country’s public sphere, leading to its “ethnicization”. On the other hand, the stiff political competition among the elite has resulted in the “politicization” of ethnicity in the country. The result of the above is a highly contested public sphere, which has been made the arena of rhetorical confrontations between various ethnic groups in the country. However since the 1970s, the Nigerian political elite have adopted power-sharing as a strategy to manage inter-group relations, mitigate the negative effects of ethnic politics, and transform the “ethnicized” public sphere through the introduction of the discourse of “unity in diversity”.

  • Role of the Military in Democratic Transitions and Succession in Nigeria
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SOCIAL SCIENCES AND HUMANITY STUDIES Vol 8, No 1, 2016 ISSN: 1309-8063 (Online) ROLE OF THE MILITARY IN DEMOCRATIC TRANSITIONS AND SUCCESSION IN NIGERIA E. E. Obioha Walter Sisulu University, South Africa. Email: [email protected]; [email protected] ─Abstract ─ This paper examined the military as an institution and its role in democratic succession in Nigeria. The paper articulated on how various republics in Nigeria failed and what role the military played during these periods. The study relied mainly on secondary data sources, which includes periodicals and other archival documents that provided the required information for the discourse. Data gathered were analyzed through content analysis. Critical and logical analysis of data attested that the military had played the role of distractive force in Nigeria’s democratization process. The military institution presented itself and acted in most occasions as a false custodian of democratic principles by initiating and implementing flawed elections for transition. However, emerging facts further suggest that these democratic principles and arrangements put in place by the military were usually faulty and inadequate for sustainable democratic governance to thrive on. Most general elections organized by the military to transit power have been descriptive of milidemocray, where previous military officers acquire democratic power through stage managed processes. The military institution therefore has functioned as a partisan organisation where various acts of election packaging were learnt and electioneering overtures acquired, despite its instrumental role in sustaining democracy in the country. This paper therefore concludes that the military has been more of a distractive than consolidation force of democratic transitions, and free and fair elections in Nigeria democracy, since her independence.

    Nigeria and the Politics of Unreason Page 1 of 27 Nigeria and the Politics of Unreason: Political Assassinations, Decampments, Moneybags, and Public Protests By Victor E. Dike Introduction The problems facing Nigeria emanate from many fronts, which include irrational behavior (actions) of the political elite, politics of division, and politics devoid of political ideology. Others factors are corruption and poverty, lack of distributive justice, regional, and religious cleavages. All these combine to create crises (riots and conflicts) in the polity, culminating in public desperation and insecurity, politics of assassinations, decampments (carpet crossing), moneybags, and public protests. All this reached its climax during the 2003 elections. When the nation thinks it is shifting away from these forces, they would somersault and clash again creating another political thunderstorm. It looks that the society would hardly outgrow ‘the politics of unreason’ (Lipset and Raab, 1970), which is often politics of extremism, because the political class is always going beyond the limits of what are reasonable to secure or retain political power. During the 2003 elections moneybags (instead of political ideology) directed political actions in political parties; and it also influenced the activities of many politicians. As a result, the presidential candidates of the two major political parties (PDP and ANPP) cliched their party tickets by stuffing the car boots, so to say, of their party delegates with Ghana-Must- Go bags. This frustrated and intimidated their political opponents within (and those in the other minor political parties). Since after his defeat by Chief Olusegun Obasanjo in the 2003 PDP primary in Abuja, Dr.
