Re Thinking of Federalism in Nigeria and Self Development

This book is on the origin and evolution of Nigerian federalism. However, no meaningful discussion of Nigerian federalism can take place without defining and examining the different ramifications and dimensions of federalism as it is known all over the world. Federalism as a concept derived its origin from the ancient twelve tribes of Israel and Archie an league of Greek City States. Federalism is therefore a political philosophy or type of political organization which is designed to unite separate political groups within an all-embracing; very powerful political union in a way that guarantees each constituent unit the right to maintain its fundamental political integrity. The Federal system of Government is only a means for the progress of Nigeria with our positive attitude to ourselves without ethnicity, corruption, welfarism and good leadership. This book will be useful for scholars, researchers, students of history and other discipline to carry out their in-depth research in all ramifications.
