WAEC Government Past Questions & Answers - Page 229

Without a good and workable constitution, democracy cannot be promoted. A constitution is the set of rules that a country is governed by. with this, accountability can used as a tool to checkmate leaders who may get overboard with the power vested on them.  

A monarchy is a form of government in which a single person holds supreme authority in ruling a country, also performing ceremonial duties and embodying the country's national identity. Although some monarchs are elected, in most cases, the monarch's position is inherited and lasts until death or abdication. In these cases, the royal family or members of the dynasty usually serve in official capacities as well. The governing power of the monarch may vary from purely symbolic (crowned republic), to partial and restricted (constitutional monarchy), to completely autocratic (absolute monarchy).

The purpose of studying government  as found in the Preamble of the Constitution, is to "establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our posterity." this will enable citizens to understand their rights and avoid abuse of those rights by people whom they had choose to represent them.
