CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.0     BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Nigeria and political corruption – political corruption is not a recent phenomenon that pervades the Nigerian state.
          Since the creation of modern public administration in the country, there have been cases of officials misuse of resources, embezzlement of funds, looting of government property for personal enrichment “the rise of public administration and the discovery of oil and natural gas are two major events seen to have led to a litany of ignorale corrupt practices in the country over the years, the country has seen its wealth withered with little to show in living condition of the common man.

          This view is what has degenerated into them or sent disregard for public property and lack of public trust and concern for public goods as collective national property.
          According to Sen (1999 p. 225) states that corruption is “an effort to secure wealth or power through illegal means private gain at public expenses or a misuse of public power for private benefit”.
          Therefore electoral corruption includes the purchase of vote with money, promises of offices or special favours, coercion, intimidation and interference with freedom of election (Nigeria is a good example where this practice is common, botes are bought.....
