The separation of powers, we all know, is a cornerstone of the democratic governance and in any modern state, where there is no separation of powers, powers would be concentrated in one organ or one human being and that person would abuse the power concentrated in his hands.
Secondly, the situation where the judiciary is made to be an appendage of the executive, then there is no separation of powers. The implication is that the judiciary would not be independent, and a dependent judiciary is never a working institution because judges would be afraid to give judgments. We cannot blame the incumbent governor or President, but we would expect that the incumbent President would deviate from the unlawful practices of the past.
However, when you look at the allocation of legislative powers between the Federal Government and the state government, it is highly lopsided in favour of the FG. In the exclusive legislative list, on which the National Assembly, the FG alone can legislate and no state government or local government can legislate or do anything with respect to such items. We have 68 items in the exclusive legislative list. Each item has sub-items contained therein that only the FG can legislate on.
While state police, restructuring and true federalism are worthy ideas urgently needed to move Nigeria forward, the shameful act of Sanwo-Olu in preventing the execution of a Supreme Court judgement cannot be good material for the campaign. It may be counterproductive.
