A former Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, Attahiru Jega, has detailed the reasons for the dearth of good leadership in the country since the return to democracy in 1999.
Delivering a paper, titled, “Importance of Personal Leadership Competencies in an Organization in Transition”, at the retreat organized by the National Institute for Legislative and Democratic Studies (NILDS) in Ilorin, the Kwara state capital on Monday, the former national electoral umpire said that Nigeria has been experiencing bad leadership since the return of the civilian administration.
Jega also stated that the country is yet to enjoy dividends of democracy since the advent of the present democratic rule because Nigeria is in short supply of good leaders.
