[.ca] Federalism and Ethnic Conflict in Nigeria (ISBN 1929223285)

For Nigerian studies reference collections:
In Federalism And Ethnic Conflict In Nigeria, Rotimi Suberu provides informative insights into Nigeria's strife ridden post-colonial history and its Federal political structure. A compelling analysis is given for the Nigerian system that has given rise to rampant corruption and social fragmentation. After a clear and illuminating historical and ethnopolitical survey, Suberu offers significant constitutional reforms that if adopted would lead to institutional innovations in Nigerian federalism that would successfully address the nation's demographic and ethnopolitical complexities as they exist between its Muslim and Christian populations. Federalism And Ethnic Conflict In Nigeria is significant and important reading for Nigerian studies reference collections and reading lists.
