Transparency International (TI), a global
coalition fighting against corruption has stated
that Nigeria’s political parties are the most
corrupt in the world. The assertion was made in
a graph that was published on its Twitter
account.
In a graph titled: “Where most people think
political parties are corrupt” Nigeria ranked
number one with 94 per cent leading the way
for nation’s with corrupt political parties in the
world. Nigeria’s leading political parties are the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the All
Progressives Congress (APC) and both are
expected to go head-to-head in the
forthcoming general elections.
On the graph, Nigeria is followed by Mexico
and Cyprus both with 91 per cent. Nepal and
Greece are placed third with 90 per cent each
while Italy is fourth with 89 per cent.
In Africa, only Nigeria’s political parties ranked
amongst the top 11.

Meanwhile, TI is concerned that the delay in
elections in Nigeria threatens the people’s right
to vote and undermines democracy in the
country and calls on the government to ensure
not only safety for voters at the polls but that
they go ahead without more delays.
The government called on the Independent
Nigerian Electoral Commission (INEC) to
postpone the elections, claiming that the army
was not in a position to guarantee security in
the face of insurgents in the north east. INEC
has set a new date of 28 March.
“Candidates for all parties have been
successfully campaigning in some of the
regions where insurgents are known to
operate. Clearly the safety of Nigerians comes
first and foremost but the government should
also ensure that elections are held on time, are
transparent and are free from fraud,” said José
Ugaz, chair of Transparency International.
Under the Nigerian constitution, the current
term of government expires on 29 May and
elections must happen at least one month prior
to this date. The government must commit to
this timetable.
It is unclear whether a six weeks’ delay will
help the Nigerian army combat the threat from
extremist groups such as Boko Haram, which it
has been trying to stop for several years. It is
imperative that any delay in the election is
clearly justified to avert suspicion that the
government is simply seeking to hold on to
power.
“The government must also ensure that there
is no political intimidation and no arrests
during the run up to the polls that would
trigger violence. Most of eligible voters now
have their new election cards, which will make
attempts to rig the voting much harder than in
the past,” said Ugaz.
