Everything about The Constitution Of Nigeria totally explained

The Constitution of Nigeria is the supreme law of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. The current constitution is the 1999 Constitution. It was adopted in its original form on May 29, 1999 in Abuja, at the dawn of the Nigerian Fourth Republic.

Constitution of 1960 (1st Republic)

Constitution of 1979 (2nd Republic)

The 1979 constitution saw the Westminster system of government (previously used in the First Republic) jettisoned for an American Presidential system, with a directy elected executive. To avoid the pitfalls of the First Republic, the constitution mandated that political parties and cabinet positions reflect the "federal character" of the nation — political parties were required to be registered in at least two-thirds of the states, and each state was required to produce at least one cabinet member.
