• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

In Political Party Financing and Electoral Politics in Nigeria's Fourth Republic, Babayo Sule provides a detailed analysis of the process of political party financing in Nigeria from 1999 to the present. Sule links the party financing process with the electoral process and explores issues of democratic accountability, transparency, and corruption in Nigeria under democratic rule. Issues of excessive spending, violation of legal procedures for party financing and monitoring of parties' activities, particularly, finances are explored. The book presents an analytical discourse on elections and processes that influence an election in Nigeria's Fourth Republic in which party financing and money politics are instrumental. This book observes how political corruption gains root in the process of party financing and builds a theory linking party financing, electoral politics, and democratic accountability. This book provides practical policy implications for strengthening Nigeria's electoral process and transparency in its democracy.
