This book investigates whether legislative institutions, state and
national, in Nigeria’s Fourth Republic have been able to harness
constitutional powers to impact public policy. 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.
