Leadership Recruitment Process and the Travails of Development in Nigeria

Odisu TA

Nigeria has failed in uplifting the standard of living of its citizens despite the enormous natural resources because the recruitment process is in favour of unreliable politicians. From the analysis of data gathered through the descriptive method, the paper reveals that rather than enthroning people who have the zeal and interest to serve, morally bankrupt politicians who are bereft of ideas are those winning elections. It is recommended that the electorate should always be vigilant to interrogate the process leading to the emergence of candidates such that dubious politicians who cannot be trusted are foreclosed from getting into public offices.
