If this all be true, it seems fair to ask the question Is Democracy Making Life Better in Nigeria? Even more unsalutory is the invasion of politics in Nigeria by cultists, conmen and the inadequately educated. I try to analyze this in my latest book: Why Not – Citizenship, State Capture, Creeping Fascism and the Criminal Hijack of Politics in Nigeria. Three basic instruments are features of democracy governance. It will be interesting to sound out the Panel of Discussants on the trending narrative that there is no nexus between democracy and development.
