The author argues that party coalitions in Nigeria can be explained by the factors of heterogeneity as well as the political systems the country has experimented with. He asserts the influence of the institution of the presidency in the current trend towards a two-party system. 607 $aNigeria$xHistory 607 $aNigeria$xHistory$y19th century 608 $aElectronic books. 676 $a966.9 700 $aAkinola$b Anthony A.$01047459 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910465817003321 996 $aParty coalitions in Nigeria$92475038 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01760nas 2200481-a 450 001 996216611403316 005 20230217213020.0 035 $a(DE-599)ZDB2211638-2 035 $a(OCoLC)55489535 035 $a(CKB)111088196501380 035 $a(CONSER)--2004213950 035 $a(EXLCZ)99111088196501380 100 $a20040526a20059999 s-- a 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aJournal of the International Association of Tibetan Studies =$ergyal spyi?i bod rig pa?i zhib ?jug tshogs spyi?i dus deb 210 $aCharlottesville, VA $cTibetan and Himalayan Digital Library, University of Virginia$d2005- 300 $aRefereed/Peer-reviewed 300 $aTitle from publishers website. 311 $a1550-6363 517 3 $aRgyal spyi?i bod rig pa?i zhib ?jug tshogs spyi?i dus deb 517 3 $aJIATS 607 $aTibet Autonomous Region (China)$vPeriodicals 607 $aTibet Region$vPeriodicals 607 $aTibet Autonomous Region (China)$xHistory$vPeriodicals 607 $aRégion autonome du Tibet (Chine)$xHistoire$vPériodiques 607 $aRégion autonome du Tibet (Chine)$vPériodiques 607 $aTibet historique$vPériodiques 607 $aChina$zTibet Autonomous Region$2fast 607 $aTibet Region$2fast 608 $aHistory.$2fast 608 $aPeriodicals.$2fast 610 $aEast Asia 676 $a951 712 02$aTibetan and Himalayan Digital Library. 712 02$aInternational Association for Tibetan Studies. 906 $aJOURNAL 912 $a996216611403316 996 $aJournal of the International Association of Tibetan Studies$91965529 997 $aUNISA
