Is Electoral Reform The Answer To A democraticly Elected Goverment . by astar2008(m): 7:13pm On Mar 11, 2010
just trying to get the forums opinion on the above issue as it appears to be the issue of day in Nigeria, is the so called proposed electoral reform  likely to ensure Nigerians get the leaders they actually want in power?.

is it likely to guarantee the leaders voted in are the ones the people want ? is it likely to  reduce the PDP stronghold taking into account that PDP nominates it owns candidates?.

The arguments i have heard are that the opposition is weak and completely divided and as such can not pull enough votes individually to gain power.

your thoughts please.
