Thanks for verifying my article today, @fantvwiki.
I wonder, how many times have elections been held in your country @freequantum? how many elections are held every year?
All elections in Nigeria take place every four years. And the general one is to be held in 2023.
I understand you concern on why an election took place this year and another one would come up next year 😊. This is what happens, in Osun state when the election was held in 2007, the electoral body pronounced a candidate as the winner but the other party don't quite agree with the result.
The case was in court for about 3 years when the court of appeal striped the incumbent governor who have reigned for 3 years, and the other contestant was sworn into office. Note, he must use 4 years for his term regardless of how many years the other guy has used before the court made a verdict on the right office owner after series of court hearing.
As such, the calendar changes when there are court cases that took a longer time before it's resolved. The cases are always a result of allegations of rigging, manipulation, and other irregular practices.
It also happens in other offices like the state house of assembly, house of representatives, and so on.
In essence, it's every four years. The normal schedule for the general election is 2023, the one conducted in my state yesterday was as a result of disruption of the calendar due to court cases that had occurred in the past.
I hope you get point now, if you have further questions for more clarity, I will be willing to answer them appropriately. Thank you.
Thank you about this knowledge, as well as our country, which also had to go through a long way when the elections were held. dozens of parties are involved in it, to produce leaders through the way of democracy. best regards to you.
My pleasure 😊. Thanks for your time.
