Nigeria’s electoral process has since the first one in1922,during colonialism to the last in 2019 been characterized with fraud,such as imposition of candidates, rigging, stuffing ballots, violence etc. The recent 2022 gubernatorial electionsin Anambra, Ekiti and Osun states werecharacterized with vote buying. This paper reviewedthe features of what is and what is not democratic governance, election process as well as free and fair election from Islamic view point. An attempt was also made to describe the important roles of Muslim women at maintaining peace and orderliness in the society,through proper upbringing of their children and playing complimentary and supportive roles to men folks at all time. Terms like voters’ education, political participation, voting, voting behaviour, credible election, vote buying were explained in relation to expected responsibility of Muslim women. It concludedby recommending and suggesting strategies that would tackle challenges of electoral process thereby having viable, free, fair and credible election in the country.
