The Problems And Prospects Of The 2019 General Elections By Abubakar Shafii by deeprinz(m): 9:45pm On Jan 23, 2018
By Abubakar Shafii

Nigeria is a year away to conduct another democratic elections, this will be the sixth time the country is witnessing a democratic election since the transition of government from a military rule to a civilian democratic regime.
Many Nigerians are however worried about the upcoming election due to the economic instability, insecurity and inflation of commodity in the market especially the recent scarcity and hike in prices of fuel which is still being experienced in many parts of the country, these problems are bringing the country to its knees.
So far, Nigeria’s President Muhammadu Buhari has not declared any intentions to seek re-elections although some notable politicians and stakeholders have endorsed him for a second term.
However, Nigeria might have faced severe decrease in economic productivity in the last three years but the government has tried to tackle that by empowering and encouraging production of food to feed the nation through agriculture and this has reduced the economic inflation rates by 15%, yet the masses are not happy as the APC ruling government has failed to fulfill its campaign promises made in the last election, the country still has problems of lack of food and portable drinking water in many rural areas, lack of power and good roads. These might cause the ruling APC party a large loss in the upcoming elections.
Also, the country is still facing various problems of insecurity in different parts like the recent massacre that was carried out in some communities of Benue state by Fulani herdsmen, Boko haram insurgency in the North east which the incumbent government has fought relentlessly and weakened the activities of the insurgents.
The herdsmen uprising is a major concern to many Nigerians at home and in Diaspora and this is sabotaging the efforts of the federal government in tackling crimes, and acts of terrorism.
If the government does find an immediate solution to this problems then the 2019 general election will be a hoax.
The largely 200million population of Nigeria wants to vote in peace but with the insecurity at stake, elections might not be as expected unless the issues is tackled.
Every Nigerian wishes for a democratically corruption free nation and many will applaud the efforts of the government in fighting corruption while some see it as a lopsided fight against corruption.
Since the Muhamadu Buhari led administration has not declared any intentions to seek re-election, “will the country go back to its corruption and impunity phase come 2019 if there is a transition in government?”
This is a question on the minds of many Nigerians.

Young man, Buharri has performed so horribly that people has been going to beg Jonathan for forgiveness. If Buharri decides to run again, I will vote him, you know why?

Because its good to sometimes vote in the worst candidates, suffering has a way of resetting people's brain.

No doubt the "corruption and impunity" presently is worse than pre 2015. Something has to give
