Federal Government of Nigeria
The Federal Government of Nigeria is the central authority that manages the country's national affairs, policies, and laws. It is made up of several branches: the executive (led by the President), the legislature (National Assembly), and the judiciary (courts). Nigeria is a federation, meaning power is shared between the federal government and 36 states, each with their own governments. The federal government handles issues like defense, foreign policy, and national economy, ensuring unity and coordination across Nigeria’s diverse regions. It operates within a constitutional framework that defines its powers and responsibilities.
