The Igbo political system was highly decentralized, with power and authority distributed among the different communities. This system was in contrast to the centralized monarchies of the Oyo and Benin empires, which were ruled by powerful kings.

In a federal system, the power allocated to both the central and the state governments is said to be concurrent.

The central government can make laws on issues that affect the entire country, such as defense, foreign affairs, and currency. The state governments, on the other hand, can make laws on matters that affect only their respective states, such as education, health care, and agriculture. The concurrent powers are those that can be exercised by both the central and state governments, such as taxation and law enforcement. The idea behind concurrent powers is to ensure a balance of power between the central and state governments, and to provide for greater local autonomy while still maintaining a strong central government.

Maelezo ya Majibu

The resignation of the cabinet after a defeat in parliament is an expression of the principle of "collective responsibility". This principle means that all members of the cabinet are jointly responsible for the decisions taken by the government. When a decision is taken by the cabinet, all members are expected to support and defend it publicly. Therefore, if the government loses a vote of confidence in parliament, the prime minister and the entire cabinet are expected to resign, as they have collectively failed in their responsibility to govern effectively. This principle ensures that the government remains accountable to parliament and the people, and that there is a system of checks and balances in place to prevent the abuse of power.
