Lanretoye:
find me one Malian citizen here that will tell you they are fine with his leadership or it is the rubbish news some people are peddling online for you.if you know how freedom of citizens and press has been suppressed in Mali you won’t be saying nonsense.

Iceking1:
What are you saying? Are the British practicing an autocratic system of government??

Akalia:
Democracy is abused in Africa. The system of governments that will thrive in Africa is monarchical and autocratic system.

Obidients best friend. What a shame

sparko1:
The truth, you guys are really children.

That is the beginning of the end of everything, very soon, it will either become an inheritance or bloodbath among the military.

You are still a child. Citizen do happy at bargaining, dictator will start kill them when they are not happy again.

HardMirror:
so which system is better? Being a dictator abi? Just like the Cameroon government or central African Republic or equatorial Guinea abi. 😂 Smh. Africans too mumu

funsho75:
I understand your perception and what you said is the truth also... Two truth can co-exist

Another truth is that democracy can never work for a developing country... They hv to first figure out a system that can work for them after a level of development they can go back to democracy.


For Nigeria, what has worked for us previously was regional form of government.

China redesign their democracy, that is why they could get out of poverty.

Democracy Politicians are not a set of people that can take a country out of poverty quickly...

Military leadership has it own consequences but if he can hold it for 5 years, build a structure, build a stable constitution, quality infrastructure development, cut western influence, build industries.

That will be great

just2endowed:
Can't work because there are too many kings. Democracy is best practice in a one language country. Where one common interest is same.
In Africa, we have too many interests.

Afriifa:
That's how they start and suddenly 50 years after they are still there.

yinkeys:
Highest this guy will do is 10 years
He wanted to step down his people said no
Thé assasinati on attempts are too much

bewla:
If that's what will make the country move forward

We want peace and not white men
Empty promises

Christ4ever:
This is how they always start.

Hijack power with khaki then 50 years later, he would have transitioned to a lifetime civilian president.

ERockson:
They will soon kkillll him. Let him enjoy the power till his cup is filled

JuanDeDios:
Well, I'm sure his teeming supporters all over the continent will hail this as another great wise proclamation from the great man.


I said it. There are people who will hail him for this.

As long as his people is fine with his leadership, it's ok
Nigeria is a good case study here. We’ve practiced democracy for years, but many citizens still struggle with poor governance, insecurity, and economic hardship. So it’s understandable why some people question whether democracy is truly working for them.

That said, the problem may not be democracy itself, but how it is practiced. Weak institutions, corruption, and lack of accountability often undermine its benefits.

If the people of Burkina Faso genuinely support Ibrahim Traoré’s approach, then that’s their reality. But history across Africa has shown that removing democratic structures entirely can create even bigger risks, especially around power abuse and lack of accountability.

Greenodds:
Don't be brainwashed. Don't think the way you have been conditioned to think. What matter is the result leave fancy names like democracy.

DeOTR:
And if things don't get better, what are you going to do about it? I hope you know you'll most probably go missing if you become a problem to any military leader?

SeizeTheMemes:
Keep in mind that China is a one party state. Yet, look at what they managed to achieve.

erniok:
I understand your views my friend and i want us to strike a balance. Remember I said if he builds his economy and is able to wipe out the terrorists(security)

The problem with Libya was they wanted gaddafi out because they felt he has ruled for long and not because the economy was in a deplorable state.

sparko1:
You mentioned China, but you don't really understand what is going on in China, the punishment for corruption and crime are not jail terms, death is usually the fastest option.

Democracy is the safest for Africa, looking for something in between is what cost Nigeria the civil war, lots of goodwill, the major cause of tribal sentiments up until this moment.

You can complain about the present government but let me ask you, as an intelligent person, what will you do differently if given a chance.

Just list it.
