This book adds to legal and political discourse on the need to strengthen the legislature and goes further to argue that the institution can be made effective through conscious efforts. It also critically analyzes legislative politics in Nigeria from where its case study is drawn just as it digs into the history of democracy and legislative development in the country. The uniqueness of this book is that it combines legislation, the Nigerian constitution, political system, politics and government in subjecting the role and functions of the legislature to a painstaking examination. It also evaluates legislative power through a novel model of analysis which contrasts the institution from the other branches of government.
