Democracy in Africa: a reality or hoax
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

The westerners are oriented to be independent, regulated by laws and institutions and therefore believe in the freedom and rights of every individual; the African is oriented in a communal setup headed and regulated by customs and traditions with the family head or the chief as the custodian. Democracy projects an opportunity for everyone to express him or herself but the African setup falls short of it. The chief or the family head has the final say and decides on the rights of everyone in the community
