Due to his date with excellence and the purity of intentions, Jega’s involvement in the said elections eclipsed his remarkable actions in other human endeavour spheres, where he had recorded equally laudable milestones and landmarks. Not many people know that he was a golden success in academics where he reached the pinnacle of his career, of course, because academics are notorious for being hidden from the face of the public as they are not politicians.
Professor Jega was born in 1957 and raised under the supervision of foresighted parents. It would have been generally impossible that he lacked the requisite knowledge of the country’s political escapades and its various episodes of wonderful and exhilarating experiences.
Jega’s cardinality to the country’s political development is strengthened by the fact that he had released a similar academic work that validates the heinous disposition of politicians in the country, some five years before he releasedNigeria at Fifty: Contributions to Peace, Democracy and Development
However, the book reveals that beyond the issue of education is the insincerity of the political leaders. Leaders are usually perpetrating election violence because they gain exceedingly from it. The problem has remained because they fail to understand that the democratic culture is entrenched, first, by the attitude that leaders show when they lose elections, which contributes incredibly to the escalation of violence or the promotion of peace.
Anyone who has put in the magnitude of work that Jega is putting out would undoubtedly have results to show for it. In reality, it is a universal truth that when people are diligent in their engagements, they will receive the appropriate rewards that match their dedication. Jega has received several awards from prestigious bodies for his remarkable contributions to the issues he presides or conducts research on.
