From 1999 to 2023 the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had conducted six consecutive elections. During each of these elections foreign observers trooped into the country in order to study and monitor the electioneering process from campaign to elections.

To borrow from Albert Schweitzer, civilization is the product of an optimistic ethical conception of the world. It is the sum total of all the progress made towards the moral and spiritual perfection of the individual within the society. The paper traced this immoral conception of politics and civilization in Nigeria, its link with education system and how it generated crisis. It was observed that Nigeria's education has merely meant the possession of certificates and qualifications resulting largely in our political and civilization woes. Thus it recommends rebranding Nigeria to focus on moral development of Nigerians.

Accordingly this paper is designed to discuss the study of constitutionalism and limit of politics in Nigeria in simple and comprehensive manner and this paper also stressed that life of citizens will be better up under constitutional government in which the power of government is clearly stated in an constitution so that arbitrary use of authority could be prevented through check and balance
