The Western type of democracy which is being practised in countries on the continent of Africa is destroying the continent. Now hear this: the Western type of democracy in Africa has created loopholes for corruption and mismanagement of public funds. Also, it is too expensive to run. Democracy gives people the opportunity to elect their choice of leaders, but only when it is practised fairly. Again, democracy is not working in so many countries on the continent of Africa because of manipulations. Look at Nigeria, for example, where the National Electoral Commission, is supposed to be fair in conducting elections; that agency has turned itself into a corrupt entity. The moneybags in Nigeria who do not know what leadership is all about would use their money to buy up the entire system, including the judiciary, and when the aggrieved political parties complain, the judiciary, which has already been bought over, would twist the case to favour the moneybags in Nigeria. This is one of the reasons so many incompetent leaders are still being elected to various positions in Nigeria. We advise that countries on the continent of Africa should figure out which system is best for them and keep to it instead of blindly following the Western system of democracy, which has put Africans in abject poverty. We are also calling on leaders of Africa to learn from the Sahel states and see if they can adopt their system because it is working well for them. Again, the Western type of democracy is destroying countries on the continent of Africa: it has made countries so poor and has turned them into beggar nations, irrespective of their huge natural resources.
