dc.description.abstractThe paper investigates the electoral law and elections in Nigeria with particular focus on exposing the mechanism for achieving credible elections to consolidate and sustain the country's nascent democracy. The authors are motivated on the fact that over the years, Nigeria continues to witness with growing disappointments and apprehension on the country's inability to conduct peaceful, open, free and fair elections whose results are widely accepted and respected across the country. It argues that the problem confronting election in Nigeria cannot be divorced from the laws regulating electioneering processes and which problems have historic in nature before, during and after independence. The paper found that the current position of law regulating elections processes in Nigeria have many shortcomings, consequently there's need for reform.en_US
