Racoon:
The fascists and authoritarian governance are just because of sheer greed and wickedness. The use of instruments of state for coercion, oppression, suppression and repression against perceived or real political enemies are part of third world democracies.

Buhari pattern of fighting corruption was a classical case in this regard. Absolutism is the African patter of governance though most of them are being backed by these Western imperialists.

So regionalism is the way out; the current quasi-federal system of government would continue to promote hunger, ethnic intimidation, religion intolerance, infrastructure decadence.

Meanwhile, before the military counter-coup of 1966 spearheaded mainly by the northerners, what we had was a regional system of government where every region controls their resources; but after they took over, they moved everything away from the region to the centre, thereby rendering the regions powerless.

The 1966 coup was spearheaded by first by easterners, that cancelled the regional system, the northerners only took over what they met on the ground when they did their countercoup

Realist12:
The earlier you understand that there'd always be different ideology regardless of class the better for you. That's what democracy is all about. This election is displaying the ideological blocs we have in these country . Regardless of media propagandas the world is watching and they know what each blocs stands for.


excerpt from my earlier post: African democracy is different from world democracy we are getting there but we shouldn't use their standards to judge ourselves , all the criticism I'm hearing about Tinubu shows some are not ready to face the reality.

Let me know when you finish deceiving yourself.
