If Democracy is about all of us coming out to cast vote, and the vote is collected and calculated with truth and honestly, and someone with the highest vote emerged, the winner, praise God!
If Democracy is about recognizing diversity, and equality that all of us are created equal, and needed to be treated with dignity, fairness, equity and justice fine!
If Democracy is about dialogue, an open platform where we can fairly and honestly because our differences, and arrive at consensus, find ways to transform our imperfect society to amore just order....good to go!
But if democracy is an opposite of all of the above, we don't need it!
We don't want distinguished men and men in robs and gowns that never have the interest of their people at heart.
We don't want politicians in national Congress whose ambitions are to loot national wealth and save the proceeds of their stealing in banks in foreign lands.
Neither do we adore the election riggers who fake their ways to public offices. Plus the sponsors of terrorists who import killers and bandits to kill, maim, kidnap and rape innocent, and still disguise as philosopher kings.
Thanks Senegal for rewriting the history of democracy in your country, for Africa.
