CONTRIBUTIONS OF VANGUARD NEWSPAPER TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF DEMOCRACY DURING THE 2015 GENERAL ELECTIONS

ABSTRACT

The importance of the Vanguard newspaper’s article on the growth of democracy in Delta State during the 2015 election cannot be overstated. This is owing to the tight interaction that has existed between politics and mass media since the beginning of Nigeria’s political history.

 

The study employed content analysis and a survey research design. For the content analysis, a sample size of fifty publications was used, with 120 respondents completing a questionnaire.

The data clearly demonstrate that the contributions of vanguard newspaper stories on home video have a favourable impact on the overall growth of democracy in Nigeria.

This is demonstrated by the newspaper’s specialised pages, photo projections, daily coverage, and advertising options during the Nigerian elections. The study’s findings aim to make the following recommendations.

Nigerian newspapers should provide enough coverage of general elections in a way that contributes to the growth of democratic institutions, which is gaining international attention.

Nigeria Vanguard newspaper’s reporting of democracy should adhere to high ethical standards, as political activities are a highly sensitive business. Newspaper coverage of democratic elections in Nigeria should include an examination of democracy’s long-term viability. Nigerian newspapers should strive to increase public awareness of political institutions through more extensive coverage.
