Polemic Paper from the year 2018 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Topic: Public International Law and Human Rights, grade: 1, National University of Public Service, language: English, abstract: This publication is intended to address notable individuals and institutions in Nigeria concerning the insecurity in Nigeria, the weak government response and the hydra-headed corruption promoted by the wasteful bicameral legislative system of the Nigerian National Assembly headed by the President of the Senate.
