The Core Problem: Democracy Without Democratic Culture
Nigeria practices electoral democracy, but many political actors still operate with feudal political instincts.
What we are seeing is:
Governors becoming subordinate to political godfathers
Party structures captured by a few elite power brokers
Legislatures weaponized for political vendettas
Internal party democracy manipulated
Federal influence shaping state-level outcomes
Opposition parties weakened through defections and elite bargains
The Rivers crisis is not just about Fubara versus Wi
