ABSTRACT
The return to democracy in Nigeria in 1999 ushered in some form of political reforms, particularly in the conduct of multi- party elections however political violence appears perverse.This study focuses mainly on the democracy and political crisis in Sabon Gari LGA in Kaduna State precisely, which has become a thorn to the effective workings of democratic values, especially, in the conduct of free and fair elections. Based on some of the assumptions of democracy understood as freedom, equality, accountability, rule of law etc, the study argues that these assumptions obviously constitute a ‘universal pattern’ in democratic practice, which makes a critical evaluation of the Nigerian experience important. Consequently, our findings suggest that the prevalence of political violence is fundamentally an attribute of vested interests of the political elite. Survey research and convenient sampling method was adopted for the study. Data was analyzed using frequency and table and Hypotheses tested using Chi-Square Statiscal tool. Finding from the study reveals that election violence and political crisis prevents the efficiency of true democracy. The study therefore recommends that Government should provide employment opportunities for the teaming unemployed youths so as to reduce their tendencies of being used by some politicians for the wrong purpose. Those who do not have any formal education should be trained into some skills that will enable them sustain themselves.
