Election Finance and Corruption in Nigeria discusses public sector corruption, a major bane of democracy, particularly in emerging democracies. While the scourge of this cancer is being reasonably contained in most advanced democracies, it is spreading in emerging democracies.

Using Nigeria as a case study, this book investigates why public sector corruption is on the rise in Third World countries. The electoral process is identified as the engine room of democracy.

"In this book, I proceed to argue that the source and type of funds used to power the electoral process directly impacts the type of democracy emanating therein. My aim is to sanitize the corruption-ridden electoral process in Nigeria."
