Nigeria governmental policies by drawing comparative analyses from petroleum
pricing practices in select African nations. Ultimately, the research culminates in
policy recommendations aimed at mitigating the adverse effects of rising fuel prices
on low-income households in Nigeria. By doing so, the researcher makes it

Legislation, court judgements, amendments, attorneys, and “we the people” have all attempted to make the national integration purpose of promoting the good government and welfares of all persons in our country on the principles of Freedom, Equality and Justice consolidating the unity of our people to reality . Through the decades that work continues to establish unity, harmony, indivisibility and indissolubility for Nigeria being a sovereign state . Methodologies of defining and refining the constitutional provisions has never ceased, alterations and several amendments is manifestly the oldest tradition of Nigeria The lingering contentions remain thus; will the constitution ever provide the expected National Integration which is the aim of Federal character? If it has partially resolved some dis Integration to what extent could it be related with on the issue of administration, education ? And will the constitution stop this phenomenal regime of flexibility and Mutability? The changes in the society would always seek the erasure and addendum of different laws, some shall be modified, altered, and some holistically amended. Nevertheless, the supreme law will remain exalted that any subsidiaries cum subsequent legislations which is inconsistent with constitutional provisions, shall be declared void to the extent of its inconsistency.
