Abstract:

The legislature is unarguably the fulcrum upon which democracy rests. Democracy, in this context, is representative government. Thus, the institution of the legislature as an assembly of elected representatives becomes the engine room of the structural framework upon which democratic governance is built. As history has shown, the beauty of legislature is greatly enhanced by a healthy multi-party system wherein elected representatives from different party backgrounds engage one another alongside party ideological positions with a view to deliberating on issue of governance and socio-economic we

Abstract:

This paper examines the activities that take place among political parties in Nigeria as they affect democratic governance. All elections are enhanced only by political parties because they stimulate voters to go out and take the trouble to vote. However, this platform has been bedeviled with internal crisis that has affected democratic governance. The lack of internal democracy has also contributed to the growing number of litigations being addressed by elections tribunal and in some occasions, the Supreme Court gives the final verdict. The paper argues that there is a relationship between in

Abstract:

Political parties are the mainstay of democratic governance, critical to policy formulation and to sustain of political structure in modern states. They are driven by entrenched ideologies besides their focus on attaining economic and political powers. Political porting one of the trending epithets for cross-carpeting, has become too frequent a phenomenon as to be capable of torpedoing Nigeria’s nascent democracy. The resurgence of this ugly tend and the near-anarchy situation in Rivers State of Nigeria has reignited the arguments around the legitimacy of this political culture. This article e

Abstract:

The prevalence of cross-carpeting in Nigerian politics continues to threaten the consolidation of democracy in the country. It is strengthened by the proliferation of political parties devoid of entrenched ideology or political philosophy besides attaining political and economic powers. The unusually delayed justice in defection related matters sometimes occasioned by the pile of cases before the scanty judicial umpire in the country is another block of stumbling over. The technical approach of these umpires to cases of defection or constitutional matters may not be far from being a cloak on t
