Since democracy is government of the people and controlled by the people,let us use the features of democracy to analyse.which party uses direct primaries to elect candidates? Which party has deployed electronic voting machine for local government polls which has enabled opposition parties to win some positions? Which party gives opportunity to new faces or the masses more? Which party updates their membership register from time to time? Which party employs people oriented policies?

No Nigerian party has the above due to the deceitful nature of politics in Nigeria.

APC is by far more democratic than PDP.


Under PDP, INEC will announce result while election was going on.

Under PDP, 15 was greater than 18.

Under PDP, 7 state house of rep members can impeached a sitting governor

Under PDP, Ghana must go bags of money were shared in the senate and used to do the bidding of the sitting president.

Under PDP, press houses were raised countless times.

Under PDP, a first lady was dragging power with a sitting governor.

Under PDP, opposition leaders houses were attacked severally by the security operatives

Under PDP, opposition members were killed

Under PDP, a commissioner of police will surround the house of a governor and bar him from entering it and claim the order come from above

Under PDP, election was a do or die.

May it never be well with pdp for earning over $880B and waisted and looted everything.

As for Apc, they are just a little better than PDP. Only that they just improved our infrastructures.

APC is closer than PDP.


Most importantly, it depends on individual.
No matter the accusations on Buhari, YOU CAN NEVER SEE HIM MEDDLE IN AFFAIRS AS SUCH.

He's more democratic than any other leaders we've had since 4th Republic, HYPOCRISY APART

People oriented policies is one of the lies. I do not need to point the others out since that will deviate the thread

Point them out so as to sweeten the thread.by people oriented policies,I was referring to socialist or welfarist programmes formulated like osibanjo which include npower,survival fund,nyif,covid fund,artisan fund,tradermoni,marketmoni,school feeding programme,cct.all these goes directly to the poor masses.pdp never had such programmes that ordinary nigerians benefitted except for youwin but beneficiaries were too few

It is far more transparent and better than indirect primaries which only a few moneybag are involved

Brother I do not have time to discuss such rubbish. PDP had such programmes. In fact, all regimes in Nigeria had such programmes but none was followed. Even the ones portrayed by this government was exaggerated, just like other programmes in other regimes that were also exaggerated . So in essence, that does not give you the right to say this regime is better than other in terms of anything . Rather, it is the worst since the inception of Nigeria

Did you read my first comment?

That they maybe better than others in certain categories doesn't mean they are good democratic speaking.

Oga,pdp never had such programmes.why not mention them? Stop talking carelessly and wildly.the only thing they had is you win except you want to add amnesty and surep.any programme pdp had was mainly for the party members.it hardly got to the ordinary masses.if you feel otherwise,mention these so called programmes.APC is far more Democratic than pdp.by the way,we are not talking about the best or worse regimes or parties but the most Democratic parties

Yes.actually,we are not practising actual democracy but if we must compare relatively based on our low standards,apc is far more democratic

People are not allowed to freely choose their leaders or who represents them at all levels whether in APC or other parties.That is not democracy.

That is why apc has brought in direct primaries which allows more people to vote though not perfect.even in elections,votes are beginning to count gradually
