| Summary: | Elections and Governance in Nigeria's Fourth Republic is a book about Nigerian politics, governance and democracy. It at once encompasses Nigeria's post-colonial character, its political economy, party formation since independence, the role of Electoral Commissions, as well as, in depth analyses of the 1999, 2003 and 2007 general elections that involved extensive fieldwork. It also presents aspects of the 2011 and 2015 general elections, while discussing the state of democratic consolidation, and lessons learned for achieving good governance in the country. It is indeed, a must read for students of politics, academics, politicians, statesmen and policy makers, and in fact, stakeholders in the Nigerian democracy project. The book stands out as a well-researched and rich documentary material about elections in Nigeria, and the efforts so far made in growing democracy. |

It at once encompasses Nigeria's post-colonial character, its political economy, party formation since independence, the role of Electoral Commissions, as well as, in depth analyses of the 1999, 2003 and 2007 general elections that involved extensive fieldwork. It also presents aspects of the 2011 and 2015 general elections, while discussing the state of democratic consolidation, and lessons learned for achieving good governance in the country. It is indeed, a must read for students of politics, academics, politicians, statesmen and policy makers, and in fact, stakeholders in the Nigerian democracy project. The book stands out as a well-researched and rich documentary material about elections in Nigeria, and the efforts so far made in growing democracy.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Elections</subfield><subfield code="z">Nigeria.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Political parties</subfield><subfield code="z">Nigeria.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Nigeria</subfield><subfield code="x">Politics and government</subfield><subfield code="y">1993-2007.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh98004026</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Élections</subfield><subfield code="z">Nigeria.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Nigeria</subfield><subfield code="x">Politique et gouvernement</subfield><subfield code="y">1993-2007.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Bilingual & multilingual dictionaries.</subfield><subfield code="2">bicssc</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">POLITICAL SCIENCE</subfield><subfield code="x">Political Process</subfield><subfield code="x">Elections.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">POLITICAL SCIENCE</subfield><subfield code="x">Political Process</subfield><subfield code="x">General.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">POLITICAL SCIENCE</subfield><subfield code="x">World</subfield><subfield code="x">African.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Political parties</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Elections</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Politics and government</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Nigeria</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJcWvf9xXVHQKFTDpVGCQq</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="648" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">1993-2007</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Agbu, Osita,</subfield><subfield code="e">editor.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="710" ind1="2" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Codesria,</subfield><subfield code="e">issuing body.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n82218433</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">Elections and governance in Nigeria's Fourth Republic (Text)</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCFvtdkgdVRFVfMqGrqxjBX</subfield><subfield code="4">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/ontology/hasWork</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="t">Elections and governance in Nigeria's Fourth Republic.</subfield><subfield code="d">Dakar : CODESRIA, Council for the Development of Social Science Research in Africa, [2016]</subfield><subfield code="z">9782869786394</subfield><subfield code="w">(DLC) 2015333371</subfield><subfield code="w">(OCoLC)952195208</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="830" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Codesria book series.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n42007400</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="966" ind1="4" ind2="0"><subfield code="l">DE-862</subfield><subfield code="p">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield><subfield code="q">FWS_PDA_EBA</subfield><subfield code="u">https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=1523463</subfield><subfield code="3">Volltext</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="966" ind1="4" ind2="0"><subfield code="l">DE-863</subfield><subfield code="p">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield><subfield code="q">FWS_PDA_EBA</subfield><subfield code="u">https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=1523463</subfield><subfield code="3">Volltext</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Afrcian Books Collective</subfield><subfield code="b">AFBC</subfield><subfield code="n">579846</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Askews and Holts Library Services</subfield><subfield code="b">ASKH</subfield><subfield code="n">BDZ0034281946</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">EBL -
