On the substantive aspect, constitutional checks and balances deal with the form of the state, system of government, state authorities and the relationship existing between them, as well as its relationship with individual rights and freedoms. Hence, given the nature of the Constitution as the highest law in the state, it must be the first reference to the other branches of laws which emanated from it. In order to guarantee an effective constitutionality of laws through constitutional checks and balances, attempt is made in this paper to address the various types of constitutional checks and balances as well as its role in establishing a state entrenched with the rule of Law, either by means of constitutional censorship or nullification or abrogation. The outcome of this research, therefore, confirms these tools of checks and balances as effective means of entrenching a state of law.A State of LawConstitutionality of LawsJudicial supervisionPolitical checks andArticle718563
