Abstract
The study looked into the effect of the activities of civil society on sustaining democracy in Nigeria with reference to Nlc. Specifically, the study aim to critically assess how Nigeria Labour Congress has contributed in sustaining democracy in Nigeria between 1999 to 2014, identify factors that shapes the activities of the Nigeria Labour Congress from 1999 to 2014 and understand the nature of state-civil society relations in Nigeria.. The findings revealed that the role of Civil Society (NLC) should be defined beyond its engagement of the state in order to prevent it from overwhelming society and trampling on individuals’ rights. This is because democracy is not just about rights. It is equally about participation, interest representation and contestation. If this is the case, NLC role and performance must properly be viewed in the context of state-civil society relations. The study thereby recommends that For NLC to be truly a “watch dog” of democracy in Nigeria, it must develop democratic attributes such as tolerance, respect, willingness to compromise and respect for opposing viewpoints, commitment to democratic ethics, loyalty to leaders, peace making and many more. It is through this role that the NLC can be said to be a custodian of nurturing and sustaining democratic process and good governance in Nigeria.
