Democracy is a system of government where the citizens exercise power by voting in elected government who in turn return democratic dividends to the people . When the government is involved in external borrowing there is a tendency that the democratic dividends could be affected. The study seek to proffer a study on a regression analysis of external debt management on democracy in Nigeria.
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
The sourcing of external debt has the advantages of contributing to the quality of good governance through the provision of infrastructure and basic amenities as democratic dividends to the people. However the disadvantage which accrues can sometimes affect the economy negatively. Indeed, debt leads to a loss of flexibility in any policy. A high level of debt attracts fixed charges which increases the financial liabilities of the nation. Consequently the opportunity cost associated with this situation shows that a nation cannot borrow again in order to exploit new opportunities such as procuring new technology and penetrating other markets. The loss of flexibility also affects macroeconomic issues. Hence government resources and right to provide for the needs of the people is restricted due to the increased associated cost of democratic dividends. Also the functioning of the State, the remuneration of the Members of Parliament are affected which may lead to breakdown in law and order. The problem confronting the study is to proffer a study on a regression analysis of external debt management on democracy in Nigeria.
