    CHAPTER 1 REPRESENTATIVE DEMOCRACY IN NIGERIA Introduction Democracy is the form of government, in which the people of a country, state or local government area decide how they want to be governed. They also decide who should govern them. In doing these as well as in their day-to-day life, the people have all the basic freedoms of speech, association, assembly, conscience, etc. Such institutions as an independent judiciary, free press, competitive political parties and an active civil society also protect them. Objectives On the completion of this chapter, the reader should be able to: - narrate how representative democracy started in Nigeria - explain what a Constitution is - trace the development of the right to vote (franchise) in Nigeria - explain the structure of the three tiers of government - describe the process by which the people elect their government. Key Words/Ideas Key words Key Ideas Democracy Tiers of Government Constitution Political Parties Franchise Separation of Power Mandate Federation Elective Representation in Nigeria What is today known as Nigeria is a product of British Colonial rule. In 1914 the first Colonial Governor- General of Nigeria, Lord Frederick Luggard amalgamated the southern and northern protectorates to form Nigeria. Earlier on, another British explorer Mungo Park had discovered the River Niger; hence the name Nigeria literarily means Niger area. 1 Lord Frederick Luggard 1914 -1919 Nigeria remained a colony of Britain until October1, 1960. The British administered the country as three regions, namely: Northern, Western and Eastern. Each region had a government, which was responsible for the affairs of that region. This arrangement started in 1946 under the Richards Constitution – which was the first federal constitution of Nigeria.

  • The Significance of the Immunity Clause for Democratic Consolidation in Nigeria
    African Journal of Criminology and Justice Studies: AJCJS, Vol.6, #s1 &2 November 2012 ISSN 1554-3897 THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE IMMUNITY CLAUSE FOR DEMOCRATIC CONSOLIDATION IN NIGERIA Olaoye, Ebenezer Olugbenga (Ph.D.), Department of Political Science, Ekiti State University, Nigeria Abstract This paper interrogates the relevance of the constitutional provisions on immunity for certain categories of elected political-office holders to the quest for democratic consolidation in Nigeria. It traces the history of immunity for political office-holders to the 1963 Republican Constitution and examines the rationale or justification for its inclusion in Nigerian constitutions. On the strength of evidences from case studies from Nigeria’s Second (1979 to 1983) and Fourth Republic (1999 till present), the paper notes that, while the original intention for its inclusion in the Nigerian constitution was good, politicians have used the clause to the detriment of democracy. For this reason, the constitutional provisions on immunity have become a threat to the consolidation of Nigeria’s nascent democracy. Rather than throw away the baby with the birth-water, the paper recommends a review of the provisions to take cognizance of the need for transparency, accountability and good governance while ensuring that political chief executives are not unduly constrained in the performance of their constitutional duties. In this way, the paper concludes, the excesses of elected political chief executives can be curbed while Nigerians can reasonably expect to reap more dividends of democracy now and in the future. Introduction: The Concept of Immunity The concept of ‘immunity’ originated from a Latin word ‘immunitas’ which the ancient Romans used in describing the exemption of an individual from service or duty to the State (Silverstein, 1999:19).

Received 8 August, 2020; Accepted 6 January, 2021 Since the arrival of new democratic train in West Africa, elections have been characterized with naked violence and irregularities which have negatively manifested in economic underdevelopment and political instability. To this end, understanding the dominant nature and character of the electoral management bodies of Nigeria and Ghana to identify a body that is substantially functioning well is central to this paper. This study found a more stronger INEC in terms of electoral management comparing the previous elections with 2015 general elections, yet issues such as non-permanent position of her experienced principal officers, nature of funding, ineffective working relation with other stakeholders are still challenges. This paper discovered that a substantial level of autonomy, permanency in membership of Ghanaian Electoral Commission (EC), proper funding and a doctrine of Inter Party Advisory Committee significantly contributed to its electoral success; by extension democratic consolidation. This study was of the view that Nigeria stands to distinguish itself, if it meticulously adopts and adapts Ghana’s viable electoral model. Key words: Democracy, election, electoral system, electoral management.
