The Director of the Abuja School of Social and Political Thought, Sam Amadi, has said Nigeria’s democracy may deteriorate further by 2027.
Amadi made the remark on Tuesday during an interview, where he discussed the state of democratic practice in the country.
According to him, Nigeria’s political parties lack internal democracy, a problem he described as both structural and normative.
He also criticised the judiciary, describing it as ineffective, and argued that provisions in the Electoral Act appear to limit judicial oversight.
“In 2027, we are going to have worse democracy than it currently is. The key point is that the Nigerian party system doesn’t have internal democracy, and the reason for that is also structural and normative,” he said.
Reflecting on the judiciary, he added, “If you look back and see the judiciary, you know, it’s like a hopeless case. The Electoral Acts try to exclude judicial review. Even when judicial review is on, it’s neither here nor there.”
Favor As Higher Power?
(The hidden truth)
Some positions in life cannot be held or retained for long if you are not favored. Favor is higher power. You are not the only one desiring, deserving, connected, powerful or qualified. Some positions in life, opportunities, success, achievements, triumphs, selection, approvals, power and position, elevation, patronage, etc, are mainly through favor. Favor is silent, spiritual and higher power. For spiritual guidance, other solutions, call/Whatsapp Dr J.A. Faros on 07030514063. With God, all are possible.
