Is It Right For Elected Politicians To Take Mandate From One Party To Another? by omoalaro: 5:25pm On May 03, 2011
In view of supreme court judgment in the case of Rotimi Amaechi that the voters voted for parties and not candidates, is it correct or right for an elected politician e.g Governor to unilaterally transfer the peoples mandate from party A to party B without recourse to the electorates who may have rejected the manifestos of party B. If it is not right, what can we do in Nigeria to correct it?
