Technology Based Device and Electoral Process in Nigeria.

      Аннотация: Within the pages of this brainchild is an ambitious twist to how we see the transition of electioneering from manual traditional methods towards a modern technological appeal, as we come to notice and discern, the dialectics between the traditional and the modern, between the manual and the technological. The book also rekindles the argument about which is better in their inherent qualities of network and dynamics, towards achieving the common goal of credible elections in Nigeria, while understanding the difference between electoral fraud and electoral malpractice, after which is the to understand electoral fraud as a system, like any other system: democracy, capitalism, federalism, etc. All within the sights of critiquing the use of technology to which modern electioneering processes have assumed. The introduction of technology has collapse the link between Nigeria's democracy and rigging to a large extent, while running down the elections in Nigeria’s fourth republic and explaining how it has given rise to a new kind of problem which is vote buying. How we tackle this problem may lead us to the round-about argument about poverty, illiteracy, and socio-economic decay.
