According to Sam Amadi, the director of the Abuja School of Social and Political Thought, good governance cannot be guaranteed by the current political system.
In an interview with Arise Television, Amadi made this statement while considering how Nigeria’s primary elections were conducted.
He clarified that this does not preclude the occasional emergence of good governance.
Amadi went on to say that there is nothing consistently orderly about the process, which is flawed and frequently lacks structure or sequence.
It is illogical to expect good governance from today’s political system. A sense of realism is required.
As an ideal, democracy necessitates a methodical, gradual process of democratisation that begins with correcting the fundamentals. The foundation needs to be strong, even though it might take some time.
“It becomes possible to clearly identify and even predict who the delegates are if political parties are stable,” he stated.
