Even though bribery of delegates has been in existence for long in our politics, but of recent it has become so terrible, that unpopular Aspirants are winning just because they are the highest bidders.
And the way it is going , I doubt if good modest people will get to power again in this country.

Sincere people won't actually want to bribe delegates to serve their people.
Just imagine, how someone who has spent between 300m to 500m of his personal money will serve his people when he gets to power. Won't he steals?

Infact our politics has become an investment, that only rich people can afford.
For now, poor people with ideas should not contest again in Nigeria, unless they waste their little resources.

And around the world, great politicians who changed their countries for good, were not that rich.
If Obama was living in Nigeria, he won't win house of Assembly ticket of his party.
If zelensky was a Nigerian , he won't win house of rep for his party.
But at the end, Nigeria suffers. Same people who have stolen our money,and people who got money in corrupt way with less hardwork, are the one who can waste money on buying expensive forms and still pay bribe to the delegates to get the ticket.
If this continues, Nigeria will continue to be battered.
Direct Primary is the solution to this bribery of delegates.
Hope things get better in the future.

Imagine Sani Abacha's son winning PDP Kano ticket while Shehu Sani lost in Kaduna

We need direct primaries to sort this

Nothing can be done about it.

It's a matter of conscience.

If you penalise the giver, it would result in witch-hunting as you can never identify all of them.

Same with the receivers which could really be dangerous as it would affect some constituencies more than others.

It's only another way to join the money skimming team.

The only way out if this is to amend the electrical law, to only allow for direct primaries. Let all register party members choose the candidate
