In Nigeria, a decade after a political transition to democracy, citizens continue to face enormous challenges. More than 60% still wallow in poverty, corruption is endemic, HIV/AIDS is spreading like wildfire, unemployment is growing, about 70 million are illiterate and life expectancy year is decreasing. Besides, there are crises of legitimacy, constitutionalism, security, national questions, and dwindling international image. Democratic reversal rather than democratic consolidation is imminent in Nigeria. This study is therefore aimed at addressing this sad democratic situation of Nigeria by rebranding flawed electoral process in Nigeria, such that legislative governance could be a veritable democratic tool for the rebranding Nigeria image. To address this situation, a null hypothesis was formulated to guide the study. A-5 items questionnaire was developed and validated in generating data, from where 200 (two hundred) respondents’ responses were utilized. The design of the study was ex- post facto, while the generated data were analyzed using the Pearson product moment correlation (r) and contingency chi-square (x) statistical procedures. The analyses revealed that: There is significant relationship between legitimate governance and visual arts as veritable democratic tools for the rebranding Nigeria image. It was concluded that the rebranding image of Nigeria is significantly influenced by legitimate governance. The recommendation was that the government should see to it that current anti-corruption strategies must be strengthened to ensure total cleansing of the social malady among the mighty and the low in the country.
