WHAT WOULD AFRICAN DEMOCRACY LOOK LIKE?

'Democracy' was coined by the West and has been used as cover for subverting people's processes on the African continent. That's what PLO Lumumba said at the 7th National Security Symposium, held several years ago in Kigali, Rwanda. The Pan-Africanists questioned whether Western-style democracy works in Africa. Lumumba called upon African countries to choose a system that aligns with their values, culture and people. He further explained that African democracy must be defined by African people, ourselves.

Let us know what you think of Lumumba's remarks.
