If I start listing the downsides of HND here, you would feel very sorry for our youth that are still attending Polytechnics or Colleges of Education

but I thought there are some courses that are best taught in the Polytechnics

babakb:
You don't understand!!!

All Universities in the European Union member countries don't accept HND for direct admission into a Masters program.

This alone is enough reason for any HND graduate to go for a conversion to BSc.

Look at how Nigeria is messed up, do you really want our youth to hold on to qualifications that limits them to Nigeria alone

This is also a valid reason

SMT042:
Shut up !
All over the world , HND to Bsc conversion is seamless without any noise, it's common in UK . Is Nigeria better than UK in education advancement?

Una go just dey unnecessarily aggressive. You can make your views known without insult. I'm not the cause of your problem oga

seriously, I dont see any reason for conversion. Bsc should be Bsc, HND should be HND.

The guy will get more than that

may his soul rest in peace

Oyo npe o ooooooooooooo

Why is cooking at home better

I'm a fan of eat out before I got married, I now eat home made food and I can tell it's better and cost lesser than eating out

eat organic foods, plenty fruit and vegetables, try and cook at home

In recent years, Nigerian politics has witnessed a growing wave of politicians abandoning one political party for another, particularly movements from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to parties such as the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and the National Democratic Coalition (NDC). While political defections are common in democratic systems around the world, the Nigerian experience exposes deeper structural weaknesses in the nation’s democracy — especially the absence of political ideology, weak institutions, and politics driven largely by personal ambition rather than national vision.
At the heart of democracy is the idea that political parties should represent clear ideological positions and policy directions. In advanced democracies, parties are often distinguished by their views on the economy, welfare, taxation, security, or social values. Citizens vote not merely for personalities but for ideas and philosophies. In Nigeria, however, political parties have increasingly become empty platforms used mainly for contesting elections and accessing state power.
The frequent decamping of politicians from APC to ADC, NDC, or other parties demonstrates that party loyalty in Nigeria is often not based on conviction or ideology. Many politicians who once defended the policies and principles of APC suddenly become critics of the same government immediately after leaving the party. Likewise, politicians who once condemned opposition parties later join them without offering any clear explanation of ideological differences. This inconsistency weakens public trust in the political system and creates the impression that politics is simply a game of personal survival and opportunity.
One major reason for defections is the struggle for political relevance and access to power. Nigerian politicians often switch parties when they fail to secure party tickets, lose internal influence, or perceive threats to their political ambitions. Instead of building strong opposition through policy alternatives, many parties become shelters for aggrieved politicians seeking another route to power. As a result, elections become contests between individuals rather than competing visions for national development.
This culture of decamping has serious consequences for Nigerian democracy. First, it weakens political accountability. When politicians constantly move between parties, voters find it difficult to hold them responsible for past actions or promises. A politician may fail under one party and simply reinvent himself under another platform without facing consequences.
Second, it undermines ideological development. Political parties fail to educate citizens on governance philosophies because there is little difference between them beyond slogans and campaign promises. APC, ADC, PDP, Labour Party, and others often recruit politicians from one another with ease because their operational methods and political cultures are largely similar.
Third, constant defections encourage instability within political parties. Instead of strengthening internal democracy, politicians resort to leaving parties whenever disagreements arise. This weakens party institutions and prevents long-term political planning. Democracy thrives when parties are stable, disciplined, and guided by principles rather than temporary alliances.
Furthermore, the trend reveals the deep monetization of Nigerian politics. Political loyalty is often tied to access to government resources, patronage networks, and electoral advantages. When politicians believe another platform offers better opportunities, they switch allegiance. This creates a political environment where ideology becomes secondary to personal gain.
The absence of ideology also affects governance. Governments formed without clear philosophical direction often struggle with policy consistency. Economic reforms, social welfare programs, anti-corruption campaigns, and national development strategies become dependent on individuals rather than enduring party principles. Consequently, policies change with political convenience instead of national interest.
For Nigeria’s democracy to mature, political parties must move beyond personality-driven politics and embrace genuine ideological identities. Parties should clearly define their positions on economic development, education, healthcare, security, federalism, and social justice. Internal democracy within parties must also improve so that grievances are resolved institutionally rather than through defections.
The Nigerian electorate also has a role to play. Citizens must begin to demand accountability and consistency from politicians instead of celebrating defections as political victories. Politicians who frequently switch parties without principled reasons should be questioned about their convictions and policy beliefs.
Ultimately, democracy cannot thrive where political parties lack identity and politicians move freely without ideological commitment. The growing trend of decamping from APC to ADC, NDC, and other parties reflects a broader crisis within Nigerian politics — a democracy struggling to move from politics of convenience to politics of conviction. Until ideology, principles, and accountability become central to political participation, Nigerian democracy may continue to face instability, voter distrust, and weak governance.
