Seven (7) Reasons for the Adoption of Federalism in Nigeria

INTRO: Federalism has been approached with variegated definitions to the extent that one might argue that there are as much definitions of federalism as there are authors on the subject. This notwithstanding, the concept of federalism boasts of a very popular definition by an American scholar, K.C. Wheare who contends that it is a system where powers are shared between central and regional governments so that each is in a sphere cordinate and independent. Reasons for the adoption of federalism in Nigeria include: 1. The Plural nature of Nigeria : Nigeria is a plural society of over 250 tongues and tribes.

Federalism was favoured among other systems of government in a bid to allay both fancied and real fears of domination among the minorities. 2. The Size of Nigeria : This is another reason for the adoption of federalism in Nigeria. With the total area of...

Seven (7) Reasons for the Colonization of Nigeria

INTRO: Colonialism is a consistent theme in the history of Africa. It laces through the formative tapestry of the majority of African states today, Nigeria inclusive. Colonialism as a concept could be seen from different perspectives. Generally however, it may be defined as the practice or policy of controling a weaker nation by a stronger nation especially for socio-economic and political gains.

INTRO:  The British colonial administrative policy in Nigeria known as the indirect rule was devised and adopted by the renowned British colonial officer, Lord Lugard, (although, there were semblances of the policy before Lugard). Lord Lugard was appointed the High Commissioner of the Northern Protectorate in 1900 following the revocation of the royal charter in the same year. The royal charter was given to the Royal Niger Company (RNC) in 1888 by the British government, to act on behalf of the government, chiefly towards instituting effective occupation in the colonies, as resolved in the Berlin Conference of 1884/85. Simply put, indirect rule is an administrative system in which the British colonial officials administered Nigeria through the intermediaries, the native authorities. According to Murray (1973, p. 1), indirect rule was an administrative policy that utilized native customs, traditions, institutions and people by fitting them into the British framework of colonial ad...
