    Nigeria and the Politics of Unreason Page 1 of 27 Nigeria and the Politics of Unreason: Political Assassinations, Decampments, Moneybags, and Public Protests By Victor E. Dike Introduction The problems facing Nigeria emanate from many fronts, which include irrational behavior (actions) of the political elite, politics of division, and politics devoid of political ideology. Others factors are corruption and poverty, lack of distributive justice, regional, and religious cleavages. All these combine to create crises (riots and conflicts) in the polity, culminating in public desperation and insecurity, politics of assassinations, decampments (carpet crossing), moneybags, and public protests. All this reached its climax during the 2003 elections. When the nation thinks it is shifting away from these forces, they would somersault and clash again creating another political thunderstorm. It looks that the society would hardly outgrow ‘the politics of unreason’ (Lipset and Raab, 1970), which is often politics of extremism, because the political class is always going beyond the limits of what are reasonable to secure or retain political power. During the 2003 elections moneybags (instead of political ideology) directed political actions in political parties; and it also influenced the activities of many politicians. As a result, the presidential candidates of the two major political parties (PDP and ANPP) cliched their party tickets by stuffing the car boots, so to say, of their party delegates with Ghana-Must- Go bags. This frustrated and intimidated their political opponents within (and those in the other minor political parties). Since after his defeat by Chief Olusegun Obasanjo in the 2003 PDP primary in Abuja, Dr.

  • The Impact of Cross Carpeting and Multiplicity of Political Parties in Nigerian Democratic Process
    Vol. 7(8), pp. 215-230, August, 2015 DOI: 10.5897/JASD2015.0335 Article Number: 99E1DB054222 Journal of African Studies and ISSN 2141 -2189 Copyright © 2015 Development Author(s) retain the copyright of this article http://www.academicjournlas.org/JASD Full Length Research Paper The impact of cross carpeting and multiplicity of political parties in Nigerian democratic process B. T. Badejo1* and N. G. Obah-Akpowoghaha2 1Department of Local Government Studies, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Osun State, Nigeria. 2Department of Political Science, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Osun State, Nigeria. Received 24 February 2015; Accepted 10 July 2015 The return to democracy in 1999 has ushered unprecedented hope on democratic process in Nigeria and, thus, heralded another opportunity for the country to launch a new strategy towards democracy, after many years of lost opportunities under a prolonged period of authoritarian rule. Indeed, the emergence of multiparty system in Nigerian Fourth Republic can be seen as a major breakthrough in the democratic process. The journey so far since 1999 raises a lot of concern and apprehension, chief among them is the multiplicity of political parties and most troublesome is the cross-carpeting of party’s members. Their structure, operations, funding and general activities can make or mar the democratic process. The way political parties in Nigeria have gone and going, does not, however, portend good tidings for her democratic process especially the selfish desires of candidates jumping from one party to the other. It is on these grounds, this study investigates factors responsible for proliferation of political parties, decampment of parties’ members; and how healthy are these activities to democratic process in Nigeria.

  • The Making of Sani Abacha There
    To the memory of Bashorun M.K.O Abiola (August 24, 1937 to July 7, 1998); and the numerous other Nigerians who died in the hands of the military authorities during the struggle to enthrone democracy in Nigeria. ‘The cause endures, the HOPE still lives, the dream shall never die…’ onderful: It is amazing how Nigerians hardly learn frWom history, how the history of our politics is that of oppor - tunism, and violations of the people’s sovereignty. After the exit of British colonialism, a new set of local imperi - alists in military uniform and civilian garb assumed power and have consistently proven to be worse than those they suc - ceeded. These new vetoists are not driven by any love of coun - try, but rather by the love of self, and the preservation of the narrow interests of the power-class that they represent. They do not see leadership as an opportunity to serve, but as an av - enue to loot the public treasury; they do not see politics as a platform for development, but as something to be captured by any means possible. One after the other, these hunters of fortune in public life have ended up as victims of their own ambitions; they are either eliminated by other forces also seeking power, or they run into a dead-end. In the face of this leadership deficit, it is the people of Nigeria that have suffered; it is society itself that pays the price for the imposition of deranged values on the public space; much ten - sion is created, the country is polarized, growth is truncated.

  • Wedlock with Corruption: Can Death Put Them Asunder?
    Uluslararası Sosyal Aratırmalar Dergisi The Journal of International Social Research Volume: 3 Issue: 12 Summer 2010 NIGERIA’S (UNHOLY) WEDLOCK WITH CORRUPTION: CAN DEATH PUT THEM ASUNDER? • Femi ADEGBULU Abstract Corruption as it is, it has been argued, is more evil than what it amounts to, and more hydra-headed than ordinary legislation could cope with. It has pervaded every sector of the Nigerian life. Law enforcement agents and agencies take bribes brazenly, but this seems to be the least form of corruption. 419 has gone digital and it surfaces in every area of human interest. More and more billionaires emerge from people who, previously had been without any visible means of livelihood. Institutions of learning are not spared of this cankerworm as unwholesome practices hitherto alien to the ivory tower are now common place. The courts are no longer the last hope of the common man, but the bastion of corruption, greed and avarice as judges award justice to the highest bidder. The hoi-polloi have been eclipsed and cowed into hapless complacency. What should be done to rescue the soul of Nigeria from this perilous path? This paper intends to examine when and how corruption became a state-craft. The paper observes that since the entrenchment and institutionalization of corruption by the IBB administration, successive governments have only taken a cue from this lootocratic culture. While the paper acknowledges the efforts of the Obasanjo-led civilian administration to tackle corruption, the efforts fell short of steering the ship of state to a safety shore of accountability as they were marred by selective justice.

    Leadership Crisis in the Parliament of Nigeria The Case of the Senate in the Fourth Republic A Banjo1 University of Zululand ABSTRACT The article explores the political dynamics that explain the rapidity of the impeachment processes and resignation of Nigeria’s Senate presidents in the Fourth Republic. By means of narrative analysis and utilising content-analysis of primary and secondary sources, gathered from fi eldwork in Lagos and Abuja, the article captures the crisis-ridden character of the Nigerian Senate from 1999 to 2007. This article probes the elements of corruption, intra-elite struggle and the dimensions of legislative-executive confl ict in the determination of the internal power struggle and leadership instability within the Nigerian Senate (1999–2007) and concludes with the need to address the problem of poor representation in Parliament. INTRODUCTION With reference to African experience, at the time of independence, African states, with few exceptions, were graced with all the paraphernalia of liberal democracy: written constitutions, multi-parties, separation of power, and so on. However, the foundations of democracy were extremely weak. Not only had the colonial state itself embedded traditions of political authoritarianism, but (Lipset:1963) (Rustow:1970) (Sorenson:1993), all argued that African countries had limited cultural and national homogeneity, low literacy levels, lacked a substantial middle class, and had low levels of economic developmental factors widely considered to be prerequisites for democracy. Consequently almost all the post-independence regimes made some heroic and innovative efforts to promote both development and democracy, but the overwhelming majority were to rapidly fall victim to political or military authoritarianism.

  • 160 the April/May 2011 Gubernatorial Poll in Imo State: a Triumph
    The April/May 2011 Gubernatorial Poll in Imo State: A Triumph of the Masses Ikenna Odife* Abstract Election provides a platform for people to elect those who direct the affairs of the state for a specific period. In this sense, its outcome could either be an acceptance of the leadership style of those in power, hence a re-election or a rejection, in which case they are voted out of office. Most regrettably, in the Nigerian context and in Imo State in particular, the results of the elections conducted in the past eight years could hardly be said to reflect the wishes and aspirations of the electorate. But the result of the April/May 2011 gubernatorial election appears to be a departure from this untoward trend. This paper discusses the nature, process and outcome of the said election and argues that the departure was occasioned by the doggedness and determination of the masses of Imo State to emancipate themselves from the stranglehold of self perpetuated leaders and political elite. It contends that the result of the election was a manifestation of innate revolutionary impulse inherent in the masses of Imo State which found vent in the “one man one vote and your votes must count” slogans of President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, as well as the popularity and charisma of the APGA gubernatorial candidate, Owelle Rochas Okorocha. http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/ujah.v13i1.9 Introduction The April/May 2011 gubernatorial election in Imo State is indeed, a landmark event in the annals of the history of the state. In the first place, the result de-mystified the incumbency factor in election.
