Description
ABSTRACT
NIGERIAN FEDERALISM and Intergovernmental relation is dated back to the colonial era. However, a trace of the Nigerian federation shows that the relationship between the central and state, state and state, federal state and local government and local government and local government have been that of competition tensions and conflicts occasioned by the diversify historically, linguistically, culturally, religious, and otherwise in the management of their jurisdictional power, fiscal policies, administrative mechanism and finally their legislative Intergovernmental affairs. But this competition, tensions and conflicts can be mixed through federal-state-local, state-local and local-local and state-state, federal-local-bargaining interactions and cooperation adopted by the various tiers of government in Nigeria as the case in the United State.
