dc.description.abstract This full dissertation in public constitutional and administrative law examines the constitutional foundations on decentralisation and devolution of state authority in Africa. It compares the constitutions of South Africa, Kenya, and Nigeria, examining and analysing the provisions in each towards the empowerment of the lowest levels of government. It concludes that substantive devolution includes constitutional or legal, political, and administrative, economic devolution and the autonomy of local government.
