520 | |a Electoral processes in Nigeria are rid and beclouded by perversion and unscrupulous tendencies in spite of the extant constitutional provisions and several instituted electoral reviews and reforms towards achieving reliable, valid, transparent and acceptable processes. The nation’s hope of serving as the beacon of functional democracy in sub-Sahara Africa continues to dwindle from time to time. The sensibility of the majority of the electorates is defective, politicians employ all means to get to and clingpower while the integrity and credibility of the umpire of the electoral processes, have been subjected to a serious question. The reasons are not far-fetched. The players in the nation’s electoral processes have chosen to sacrifice conscience, ideal orientation and redeeming ethics. For a workable democracy, stable and reliable electoral processes, relevant ethics have to be ensured. The Nigerian democratic platform is flagged off by series of electoral hiccups such as fraud, violence, intimidation, manipulation of sorts, compromise, subjugation, suppressive militarization and brazen vote buying. The situation calls for re-brandingthrough sensitization and ethical re-orientation. This paper thus suggested the need to imbibe Islamic ethical teachings to achieve desirable electoral processes as background for good governance and nation building. If the processes that produce a set of leaders are defective, meritocracy would definitely be sacrificed on the altar of mediocrity. This paper used descriptive methodology by relying on existing literatures. | ||
