ELECTORAL MALPRACTICES IN NIGERIA CAUSES EFFECTS AND SOLUTIONS: CASE STUDY OF 2019 GENERAL ELECTIONS
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of the study
The word “Electoral Malpractice” which encapsulates an “offence” is not capable of precise definition. Nwabueze, in attempting a definition stated that “electoral malpractice” constitutes criminal offence under the Electoral Act (Nwabueze, 2003) . He also stated that the word “electoral malpractice” connotes “illegal act done with a corrupt, fraudulent or sinister intention to influence the election in favor of a candidate”. Hence, in Sadu Malumfashi vs. Usman Yaba and Ors, Rowland, JCA (as he then was) stated that electoral malpractice can occur in a situation where the votes scored by the parties exceed the number of accredited voters. Following from these definitions, where it can be shown that there were discrepancies in the figure between accredited voters on the queue to vote, and the total scores of both parties in the said polling stations or where the results in various polling stations within a constituency are characterized by irregularities due to discrepancy in the number of registered voters and total scores of the two contestants, the courts will have no difficulty in declaring that there is an electoral malpractice. Thus, a situation where the votes scored by both parties at the election exceeded the number of the accredited voters on the queue is as much an electoral malpractice as the case of the total votes case to both parties exceeding the number of accredited voters for the accreditation of voters and the actual voting are only the extreme sign posts for determining whether malpractice has occurred. In between these two extreme sign posts is the situation where votes casts exceed the number of accredited voters on the queue. Generally, electoral malpractices constitute criminal offences. They are listed in the various Electoral Acts and are required to be proved beyond reasonable doubt under the Evidence Law. However, the authors are concerned primarily with electoral bribery and conspiracy; undue influence; corruption; vote buying and Treating, Rigging and Violence.
