Perspectives on the Legislature and the Prospects of Accountability in Nigeria and South Africa
Author: Omololu Fagbadebo
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319935097
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 261
Book Description
This book examines the problem of accountability in two African political systems, South Africa and Nigeria. Despite the principle of separation of powers and the doctrine of checks and balances among the institutions of governance, a burgeoning governance crisis stifles the potential of accountability and good governance. Legislative oversight in the two countries remains largely ineffective while citizens are left to face the consequences of the mismanagement of public resources by political elites. This book critically assesses how the legislative institutions in South Africa and Nigeria have been unable to harness the requisite constitutional powers to ensure accountability in government and explores the feasibility of their effectiveness. The book begins with a comparative analysis of the principles, tradition, and powers associated with legislative capability in South Africa and Nigeria. The chapters explore constitutional provisions and analyze the capacity of each legislature to function within its respective political environment. The book also examines the process and challenges associated with the various measures and mechanisms available for legislatures to ensure accountability in the two countries. Researchers, scholars and students of African politics will find this book useful in their understanding of the problems associated with the simmering governance crisis in South Africa and Nigeria.

The Power of Releasing
Author: Wayne Kniffen
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1664299602
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 110
Book Description
Releasing others does not change the past—it changes you. Wayne Kniffen, a pastor of more than fifty years, shares that powerful message in The Power of Releasing. In straightforward language, he answers important questions such as: What really happens when we choose not to forgive or release people who have abused, used, or hurt us in some way? How can we avoid becoming attached to the very people we want to get away from? What does forgiveness mean and why is it so hard to forgive? The author argues that forgiving and letting go of anger, resentment, grudges, and even revenge, is required for us to move forward in life. Forgiving someone does not mean that you agree with what they did to you. But it does mean that you refuse to let their actions hold you back. One of the most dangerous things you can do to your emotional and spiritual health is to keep holding on to what you need to turn loose. As long as you refuse to let go, you’ll be pulled and jerked around by what you refuse to release.
