Thoughts on the Nigerian Constitution

Awolowo, drawing from his extensive experience in constitution-making since 1949, articulates the necessity of a well-structured constitutional framework that genuinely reflects the country’s diversity. He critiques the suspended constitution, addressing misconceptions and distortions, while presenting a reasoned argument for the most suitable governance structure for Nigeria’s stability and progress.

This book serves as both a historical document and a blueprint for constitutional thought, offering insights that remain relevant in contemporary discussions on governance and national unity. Awolowo’s meticulous analysis and unwavering commitment to democratic principles make this an essential read for scholars, policymakers, and all who are invested in Nigeria’s political evolution.
