Abstract

The role of the electronic media in a nationâ€™s political development is not in doubt, but whether they are performing this role as expected is still a subject of polemics. Using the agenda-setting and two-step flow theories as supports, this paper examines the constitutionally prescribed roles of two electronic media namely: radio and television in relation to the extent of performance of those roles. Citing instances in the nationâ€™s political history, the author attempts an examination of the positive and negative impacts of radio and television on Nigeriaâ€™s political development. The paper concludes with recommendations on how the media could be more relevant in the performance of those duties which society expects of them.
