Federal Constitution of 1999

The Federal Constitution of 1999, specifically in the context of Nigeria, is the foundational legal document that establishes the country's government structure, laws, and fundamental rights. It defines how power is distributed among the executive, legislature, and judiciary, and outlines the roles of federal and state governments. It guarantees individual rights, promotes democracy, and ensures rule of law. Essentially, it serves as the supreme authority, guiding everything from governance to personal freedoms, and provides the legal framework within which Nigeria operates as a unified, federal state.
