TO TRUE DEMOCRACY in THE JOURNEY   AFRICA
In its simplest term  DEMOCRACY = BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS
Whenever we go to polls in Africa, we should consider changing history not improving or refurbishing history to write another sad chapter of uncertainty –  Ivan Ukiwah
The Journey to true Democracy DEMOCRACY is providing equal access to power, better representation and more freedoms to the electorate (people who voted you and those that did not). Anything short of this goes against everything we know about true democracy.
Power in the hands of leaders lacking genuine vision, passion and commitment to serve except the vision to enslave and deprived people of their universally recognised freedoms and liberties.  AFRICA WHERE POWER IS HELD BY LEADERS
Democracy  is a form of government in which power is held by people under a free electoral system. What we are witnessing in some parts of Africa is democracy where hunger, starvation, dehumanisation, police brutality, are dispatched by elected leaders
DIRECT DEMOCRACY Africans should consider radical alternatives and refrain from the widening spectrum of social, political and economic instability crippling the continent.
Advancement of True Democracy All we need is a spectre of civilized democracy reminiscent of western world, based on the right of every citizen to actively participate in matters that affect them. Not democracy plagued by corrupt, selfish and insignificant (masquerading as leaders) depriving people of basic human right.
