Presenting how the Nigerian state has not been able to showcase the expected dividends of presidential democracy since 1999, it analyzes the crisis of governance and its impact on political stability, social cohesion, and the livelihood of citizens. The book further discusses the depreciating infrastructure, corruption, and mismanagement of public resources, and shows how defiant attitudes of public political and bureaucratic officials define the new wave of corruption and profligacy in Nigeria, presenting this development as a result of a weakened legislature. The book displays the necessity of implementing a culture of accountability and discusses oversight mechanisms to make the executive accountable. These mechanisms are designed to ensure effective public service delivery. Finally, the book situates the legislative institutions in Nigeria within the context of the contributions of the National Assembly and the Assemblies of the State Houses to the development of this emerging democracy in Africa. The book will appeal to students and scholars of political science and public administration, as well as policy-makers and practitioners interested in a better understanding of democracy, separation of powers, governance, and Nigerian politics. 410 0$aAdvances in African Economic, Social and Political Development,$x2198-7270 606 $aAfrica$xPolitics and government 606 $aComparative government 606 $aPublic administration 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aAfrican Politics 606 $aComparative Politics 606 $aPublic Administration 606 $aGovernance and Government 615 0$aAfrica$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aComparative government. 615 0$aPublic administration. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 14$aAfrican Politics. 615 24$aComparative Politics. 615 24$aPublic Administration. 615 24$aGovernance and Government. 676 $a328.3 676 $a320.9669 702 $aFagbadebo$b Omololu 702 $aAlabi$b Mojeed Olujinmi A. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910682560803321 996 $aThe Legislature in Nigeria's presidential democracy of the Fourth Republic$93418177 997 $aUNINA
