Political Theory

Political Theory concepts are anchored on many indices which determine political activities the world over.

And this is aimed at giving everybody an equal opportunity to participate in the governance of that state. Democracy as we have the legacy from the Greeks is government of the people by the people and for the people. Based on the above premise zoning becomes the best option for pushing tentacles of government to reach every section of the state or nation.

It is this principle that has been fostering the needed unity in different parts of the world including Nigeria
