CHAPTER ONE

 

1.1     BACK GROUND OF THE STUDY

It is generally believed that man is a political being. In his effort to organize his society in ordering manner man evolved system or government. The problem o a workable system of government is the pivot of human political activities.

Nigeria as a sovereign nation operates a federal system of government. In its federal character Nigeria is divided into three levels of government viz: - the federal government, state government and the local government councils.

These three levels of government are involved in a co-operative venture geared towards improving the life style of the citizens.

Onwo (1992) Observed that each level of the three tiers of government derive its powers not from the magnanimity of the central government but from the constitution each level of government has defined responsibilities assigned to it by the constitution. The implication of this is that the three segments of governments are mutually interrelated in a unified effort to make life worth – while for the masses.

Local government councils are generally perceived as the grassroots government. This in effect shows that the government closest to the masses.
