NOV 51969 WASHINGTON. O. C Dedicated to my Parents Preface Great Britain started colonizing Nigeria at about the second half of the nineteenth century. From this time until October 1, I960, the date Nigeria became independent, the British introduced liberalism into the country as a political, economic and social philosophy. Although there exists a relatively large volume of (mostly scattered) literature on Nigerian foreign policy, the question of how the philosophy of liberalism, especially the Anglo-American style, has continued to influence Nigeria’s foreign (as well as domestic) policy even after independence, has not yet been investigated in an adequate chronological perspective. This largely factual, historical (and yet basically theoretical), study is meant to fill that gap. I hope the work will be found helpful particularly by students of Nigerian political affairs and in general by students of African studies.

  • Amending the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999
    African Journal of Legal Studies 4 (2011) 123–148 brill.nl/ajls Amending the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 Nat Ofo* Senior Lecturer and Sub-Dean, College of Law, Igbinedion University Okada, Edo State, Nigeria Abstract The amendment of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 has not been free of contro- versies. The latest controversy dogging the amendment relates to whether or not it is necessary for the President to assent to the Bill of the National Assembly amending the Constitution, even after the amend- ment has been ratified by at least two-thirds of the Houses of Assembly of the States of the Federation. There are two schools of thought on this issue; each with sound arguments in support of their respective position. A dispassionate and realistic consideration of the issue has been undertaken in this article. The conclusion is reached that the provision of the constitution dealing with its amendment is not free from ambiguity. Its lack of clarity on its amendment procedure has made it obviously in dire need of amend- ment. Consequently, necessary suggestions on how to resolve the issues, including the amendment of the amendment-provision of the constitution have been proffered. Keywords constitutional law; constitutional amendment; 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria; assent of the President; interpretation of statutes; National Assembly; Senate; House of Representatives 1. Introduction Amending the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 19991 has ab ini- tio not been free from controversies. The latest controversy on the amendment of the 1999 Constitution relates to whether the assent of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria is necessary before any purported amendment to the consti- tution can become effectual.2 As can be imagined, there are two views on the matter.

The Freedom of Information Coalition is an alliance of civil society organizations campaigning for the enactment of a Freedom of Information Act in Nigeria.

The coalition also works to popularize the freedom of information (FOI) bill among various sections of the Nigerian society and secure their support in the push for the enactment of the Bill into law. At the moment, there are 88 civil society organizations that are members of the Freedom of Information Coalition. Member organizations are located across all the zones of the federation and include the organized labour, academic organizations, journalists’ associations, women and youths organizations, traders associations, etc. The Freedom of Information has a secretariat that coordinates its activities.

  • Right to Fair Hearing in Nigeria Under the Imperatives of Covid-19 Control*
    NAUJILJ 12 (1) 2021 RIGHT TO FAIR HEARING IN NIGERIA UNDER THE IMPERATIVES OF COVID-19 CONTROL* Abstract When the Corona Virus Disease struck the world in December 2019 no one predicted the magnitude of damage it was bringing. Many medical practitioners concerned about the challenge nursed optimism that the virulence would not escalate beyond China. The pandemic spread throughout the world – scoring the recrudescence of a peculiar killer disease in medical history. Nations have applied diverse procedures to reduce its spread in their respective jurisdictions, thereby affecting the social structure, dispensation of citizens’ rights and other state obligations. Yet there should be respect for right to fair hearing, as evidence of the rule of law among civilized people. The objective of this study is to project the importance of this right in Nigeria. The data came from regulations implemented by four constituencies in Nigeria viz. Kaduna, Lagos and Rivers States, and the Federal Capital Territory, where the Governors wrongly applied the COVID-19 transmission prevention scheme to exhibit illegal use of force which infringed on the citizens’ right to fair hearing. Even in emergencies this right should be preserved because of its sacrosanctity, since the constitution did not create any exception to warrant its infraction. Keywords: COVID-19, Fair Hearing, Transmission, Jurisdiction. 1.0 Introduction Corona Virus Disease (COVID-19) pandemic has to be appreciated not only as a health challenge but also as a test of humankind’s efficiency in integrating the rule of law into management of medical exigencies. Symptoms of the disease were first experienced in Wuhan, Hubei Province in China in December 2019; it went viral thereafter.

First, Peter Trubowitz has been an excellent dissertation chair and, before that, faculty adviser. From contacting me via email after I was accepted into the University of Texas at Austin, through the coursework phase of my graduate training and right up until the defense of this dissertation manuscript, he has been an unstinting source of encouragement, mentorship and guidance. It will be obvious to anybody familiar with our work that mine takes a liberal dose of inspiration from his. I think that good doctoral training should resemble an apprenticeship and I am grateful that I was able to learn my craft alongside a true master of the art. Bruce Buchanan, too, has been a dependable ally within the Department of Government ever since my earliest dealings with him.
