ABSTRACT Previous elections in Nigeria have been associated with irregularities. The landmark elections conducted by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) were in 2015. In significant ways, the elections demonstrated the willingness of the governing elites to lay formidable foundation for sustainable growth in our democratic practice. This study is aimed at assessing INEC and the management of 2015 general elections in Nigeria. The study noted that a number of factors have combined to derail the electoral process in the past and ipso facto the democratic project, but what has always put the nails on the coffin of democratic transition in Nigeria is the massive fraud that characterize the electoral process. The study assets that there is a need for a total systemic overhaul at the political, economic and social levels which can be effected by strengthening various institutions of governance and the capacity to compel compliance with the rules. The study recommends Electoral reforms, de-registration of political parties, ensuring justice by Election Tribunals, prosecution of electoral offenders, better independence of the judiciary, and quicker provision of funds.
