This book provides a uniquely detailed analysis of presidential elections in Nigeria’s Fourth Republic. The authors explore the changing dynamics of voting patterns, religious politics, politicians’ behaviour and the broader political system to offer new insights into presidential systems in Africa and beyond. In doing so, they address an often-neglected area of political science and cast light on the political challenges facing one of the world’s largest democracies. The book’s comprehensive coverage of Nigerian presidential elections – and the lessons they hold for developing countries across the globe – is a valuable resource for researchers, students, international institutions and non-governmental organisations.
