"After fourteen years of uninterrupted practice of democracy we still suffer acute poverty of democratic culture and practices. This is a challenge to all Nigerians but more so for those of us deeply concerned in the democratic process and operation. We must place national interest above selfish interest, we must place objective principles above parochialism and whims. We must deliberately promote a viable and transparent electoral process. The right to opinion and dissent must be given space in our political discuss. Internal party democracy is a sine qua non to the genuine development of democratic culture therefore as we work and walk towards 2015, we ought to take the vow that all votes must count whether in intra party democratic processes or at the level of inter party contests."- Rt. Hon. Aminu Tambuwal, Speaker House of Representatives
