Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Political Succession in Nigeria has been crisis ridden largely because the options for citizens to determine who rules them is foreclosed prior to elections and these is done during primary elections, thereby undermining elections as the expression of popular will and a means to guarantee and defend democratic norms and values. The concern of this piece is to examine the relationship between flawed primaries in the 1999, 2003 and 2007 general elections in Nigeria and the deeply flawed outcome of the elections that were characterized by irregularities and violence. The study is an empirical analysis of the nature of primary elections in the six geopolitical zones of Nigeria as documented in purposefully selected Nigerian dailies, the reactions and counter reactions of leading political opposition leaders, institutions and agencies that are involved in the electoral process, reports from National and International Observers and its implications for sustainable development and democratic consolidation. Key words: Primary elections; Political succession; Political parties; Democratic values; Political behaviour Resume: La Succession politique au Nigeria a ete monte en grande partie par la crise des options concernant les citoyens afin de determiner qui les regles est forclos avant les elections et ceux-ci est fait lors des elections primaires, compromettant ainsi les elections comme l'expression de la volonte populaire et un moyen afin de garantir et de defendre les normes democratiques et des valeurs.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
