  PLAYING THE LAST ACT Written by Mbibi Longinus Chinagorom(PAA)/09138193291  The habit of Government refusal to redeem its promises hardly shocks Nigerians these days. Nor does reversal of its decisions. It has earned the current administration in the country public distrust. Still there seems to be no limit to how far it is prepared to play its act. The government went against the plausible choice of the people and the standard of commission towards the most top sit of the governance during its election in the country. And set aside the decision it makes to the people before the the most top sit of the government election conducted. About the most painful aspect of it all to some Nigerian politicians that belong to the winning political party, they seem not to realize what even happened let alone to talk about U-turn. Instead they are completely put out of action and be saying their candidate in the past election of number one citizen of the country was the best and brightes...

Thus citizens will get the type of government and society they deserve through their votes. Therefore, the democracy smiles with intelligence of showing a high degree of understanding.

  THE INDIVIDUAL IN NIGERIAN DEMOCRATIC SOCIETY Written by Mbibi Longinus Chinagorom(PAA)/09138193291 The chances of a electoral malpractice are very narrow indeed in Nigeria. The arrangements, practices, procedure and institution ensured, guaranteed, contained or implied in Nigerian Constitution are such as to make a electoral malpractice impossible.

Therefore, a democracy believes in the ability...
