Historique

Despite 10 years of uninterrupted civil rule and three successive general elections including a successful transfer of power from one civilian administration to another, Nigeria continues to face the challenge of conducting elections that meet both regional and international standards of free, fair and credible elections. Consequently, soon after his inauguration as President in May 2007, President Umaru Yar'adua made commitment to reform Nigeria's electoral system and strengthen democratic governance. Electoral reform is currently under way, and hopefully will be concluded before the next general elections in 2011. UNDP and other donors the EU, DFID and CIDA have initiated Democratic Governance for Development (DGD), in response to the request from the Nigerian government to assist in working towards achieving a more credible electoral process.

This initiative will enable the Nigerian Government to work closely with Civil Society Organizations and other political key players in a six distinct and inter-related programming components such as:

Strengthening of National Assembly
Strengthening of Political Parties
Improvement of the Electoral Process
Increased Capacity and Performance of Civil Society
Reinforcing the role of the Media
Empowerment of Women

DGD in Nigeria will focus on Electoral Cycle Support and Deepening Democracy within the framework of the Joint Donor basket Fund (JDBF) 2 that will support the electoral process and consolidation of democracy from 2009 -2014.)

The Project (DGD) will work closely with UNDP Country Office in deepening democracy in Nigeria during the elections period. UNDP has reiterated its engagement in supporting the Nigerian Government in the reinforcement of capacity building in the objective cited above. The programme period will be covered for 5 years. In support of this initiative, UNDP is recruiting Drivers.
