Political Party System and Effective Leadership in Nigeria: A Contingency Approach by Dr. Ken "SKC" Ogbonnia 211.20.11.205:8080/edissstat/customPDFList?CusNO=0032&NO=170 - 43k - de:Liste der politischen Parteien in Nigeria]]. The work analyzes the impact of political parties on organizational leadership. It argues that Nigeria's leadership problem is not on the peripheral axis of individual leadership nor the tangential but much publicized tribalism, bribery and corruption or military interventions. Instead, the author contends that the problem is imbedded on the political environment (particularly the nature of political parties) in which the leader operates. Dr. Ogbonnia regrets that the most palatable treasure for Nigerian leaders has also been the root of their downfall: Their penchant for absolute power, which abhors checks and balances usually leads to abuse of office—particularly corruption and, of course, the eventual but unfortunate fate with history.
