Is the 2012 Election in Ghana an example of how Nigeria should handle its next election?

Ghana's election has, often times, been free and fair.
I think we should borrow a leaf from them.

of course. We need to see what the difference between our system and their system is and see where we're going wrong.
At the same time on the state level we have been having repeat fair and free elections back to back.

I don't think fair and free elections are our problem. Nigerians are wiser now and won't tolerate forced mandates. The people that win elections have been, over and over, the people's choice since the GEJ election.


The issue is the losing side excepting defeat gracefully (do-or-die politics). The only problem with the GEJ election was Buhari's supporters felt the need to start killing their enemies and Buhari remained quite, later coming out and saying there's going to be more bloodshed. This is ridiculous. People shouldn't have to die for politics because life is worth more than foolish titles. This is the difference between the Nigerians and the Ghanian system. In Ghana if someone loses they begin preparing for next years elections. In Nigeria is they lose their followers riot and their leaders go to court like children.


Nigerians can't separate competition and hatred.
