1.2 Statement of the Problem
Democratic governance in Nigeria has
been a theoretical knowledge void of practical experience. The country
has seen a number of administration come and go with no or little
evidence of democracy. All the administrations that have ruled this
country after the military has preached this sermon of democracy but
have failed to deliver its dividend. The crusade of democracy is now
used as a tool to gather votes and dumped after the elections. Even as
Nigeria is about to experience another election in 2019, democracy will
be preached through various political mediums, all in a bid to convince
the electorates that the incoming government is interested in her and is
able and capable to deliver on the election promises. However, after
the elections, all these democratic promises are locked up in a box
waiting for the next four years. Some Non-governmental Organizations
(NGOs) have identified this gap and have taken it upon themselves to
play a vital role in bringing this gap that exists between elections and
democratic governance in the country. This study is therefore
