If you have come across and read, Buchi Emecheta’s “Joys of Motherhood” you will understand some certain point that act in a physical way. The aspect of democracy has indicated to be a astonished and referring and indicating concept of the governance over the years. It has established it’s foundations on freedom, create its walls on human freedom and hold on it up with equality before the law. No disagreement, this has so referring the legendary president and rulers c*m icon of the American state Abraham Lincoln, to have define and explain more about democracy that “Democracy is the government of the people, by the people and for the people” in this age of Homo sapiens, legacy of Human person is very Paramount and this concept indicate more that, stands by that.
So, with little ado, it is the freedom to be the better ideology practicable in this contemporary time. However democracy is seeming to lose the grip of it’s guiding principles because the wall seem to be changing. We could be associating a blunderer fallacy if we mobilize it, you could agree or doubt with me that it is only peculiar to the same clime. But! No! let us look more on the background of democracy from the roots, from its origin, and the history beliefs of its founder fathers. There is a aspect fallacy for this Argument-um ad populism, the fallacy of thought that the exist of population numbers of people who accept a given thing is the real of its truth. Common sense is absolute nonsense,
One thing is smile to democracy, THE PEOPLE!!! Democracy expand the people with so more power especial political power. Democracy render the people the freedom to select their leaders, to influence more on national decisions, to protest on coming tyrannical government e.t.c but one thing democracy cant described more is, who is the People? Sociology as a discipline has move a great length in defining nature of people in society; coming from the minority to the majority, and also from the bourgeois to the proletariat, the elites to the commoners, from the literate to the illiterate, from the rich to the poor and lastly coming from the upper, middle, and the lower class of people.
All this pyramid groupings have their play to how democracy act on the development. Naturally, this class of people will definitely existence in every society,
And if democracy cannot reach enough from all this people, what then is it persisting? however, an illiterate who is political ignore, will not be aware or know how or why he is given the right to choose a leader, he is then left alone in the hands of another class of people who chooses for him.
Thomas Jefferson also refer “a democracy is absolute nothing neither a mob-rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may associate the rights of the other forty-nine, our fathers of fathers were familiar with this lawless democracy that lead France to a good senseless revolution where mobs of people take turns in lynching their employers and their leaders including the last followers who lead them on a guillotine parade. In democracy, the majority can insult the minority, the rich can impressed the poor, the whites can prosecute and punished the blacks, and the unborn can not terrorize the born, because they can “out-voted” them. In a democracy, popular leaders can usurped their God-ordained limits, goes another way round on their oaths, depriving their lesser subjected of life, property with undue-process and gives out tax-subsidies to citizens in exchange for ever increasing power”
In the real real sense,democracy has be presented as the use of elected representatives, since direct democracy cant coupe in this modern populous era of ours, No doubting, constituency zoning existences, period of office exist which tend to make the concept equation one. But! When the constitution, one of the pillars of democracy has posed to be one of its blockage because it create elected representatives the right to be re-elected, so even members of the congress can offer In office for decades. I wonder if it’s still the people’s decision. Henrik Ibsen stated “the majority is never right or collect. Never, I tell you! That’s one of these lies flee in society that no free or intelligent man can ever being help rebelling against, who are the people who make up the biggest proportion of the population—the brilliant ones or the fools? I think we cant doubt that it is the fools, no matter where you landed in this world.
It’s the fools that composed the overwhelming majority “ for this reason of insatiability of the people, democracy should ride itself of all forms of constitutional spices coming from parliamentary immunity to prerogative of mercy and strengthen it’s checks and balances. John. F. Kennedy stat “ the real and truth democracy, living and growing and inspiring, encourage its faith on the people- faith that the people will not easily elect men who will represent their opinion ably and faithfully, but will also select men who will exercise their conscientious judgment—faith that the people will not terminate those whose devotion to principles way on them to unpopular courses, but will reward courage, respect honor, and ultimately recognize right”
Succinctly put, Nigeria is a example study of the crumbling democracy or never in existence one . it has educated made a folly-jest of what democracy indicate for , it has sarcastically course with the ideals of democracy, with its corruptible paint it has discolor the beauties of the pattern, it is showing up under social and cultural background, which the concept of democracy absolutely value.
Democracy create us the liberty to designs out our own democracy putting in views the history remembers of our people and not drifting from the pillars of the concept. however , the elected representatives have misconstrued this fringe regained; partly because they do not know well it themselves or they do not care, thereby promoting democracy through selfish wills and desires.
And one of their power is that they govern majorly a politically-ignorant class of people different from their “counterparts” in America. That is the main concept they will rigging elections, they will embarked on public funds, they will be bribes before the public glare, major projects will be alone abandoned, for that reason, they kept left concern on care about social amenities for the people and how critical is for their economic development and well being of thier living. They will allocated oil rigs for themselves and expand the gap between the rich and the poor, they will act on public positions for decades and feel it’s an hereditary position, lack of employment will rise in a failed manifesto. I do interrogate myself, are we making a funny act out of democracy in Nigeria? Or this is our how definition of “cultural democracy” Democracy has not even worst more to this stage that the Afro-beat legend ‘Fela Anikulapo-Kuti’ has gives.
“Democracy is the acting of craziness and crazy individual” which outcome of Nigeria? I guess we should not wear a mask called Democracy, we need to improved a system that will suit our political lifestyle.

The Chief Sunny Onuesoke, Special Project Director, Delta State Governor's Office, In interview given on the letter of Former President Olusegun Obasanjo to Jonathan, the vision and mission of Jonathan for Nigerians and his chances of clinching the Peoples Democratic Party,PDP, Presidential ticket in 2015. Excerpts:
What did you have to say and your assessment of Former President Olusegun Obasanjo's letter to President Goodluck Jonathan?
There is also an element of inconsistency in the letter of former President Olusegun Obasanjo to President Goodluck. According to the report given that as a former head of state Olusegun Obasanjo , he should not have sent the letter to the media. He was the one that is instrumental and he was one that make straight way and road for to the installation of President Goodluck Jonathan that inconsistency in sense as the former head of state he should not have sent the letter to media.
If Jonathan is doing t right order, the normal thing for him to do is that he would have gone straight to Jonathan to discuss the issue and tell him to adjust his correction and made necessary change not to sent letter to media which is not right proper because his is the one of former head state of Nigerian and he was the one that made the installation of president Goodluck Jonathan on that seat so he should not have sent the letter to the media . He has access to Aso Rock,He would have gone to him to say my son what is going on and happening? You are derailing instead of going to the press to whip up sentiment and put unwanted coloration on issues that are not supposed to be issue.
Also according to the report that he is only against him going to the public to sent such a letter which is not right in order as one of the former head state and he also have access to the Aso Rock and He should do the right things by going to him.
According to the report that In the letter, Obasanjo advised President Jonathan not to go for second term. What is your position on that?
According to the report given that It is not Obasanjo that will tell Nigerians that Jonathan will not be contesting as President for second term. It is President Goodluck Jonathan that will tell the 160 million Nigerians and the masses if he will contest or not and we will believe. Even if Obasanjo had a private discussion with the President that is not an issue before the masses. It is the responsibility of Nigerian masses for Jonathan to consult us.
According to the report given that He is absolute wrong to say and advised Jonathan should not go for second term. Did he consult anybody before he wanted to go for a third term? Why didn't he wait for the masses to resist Jonathan? Why are Northern elites and governors dictating to Nigerians who is going to be the leader of this country? For Christ sake, it is we that Jonathan should consult and not Obasanjo and few elements. It is unacceptable to Nigerian masses.
According to the report given that Let it be known that I am speaking on behalf of Nigerian masses to make things better in Nigerian. I am not speaking for the elites, the politicians or those in appointment. It is we be the masses that will decide on their choice if Jonathan will contest or not.
