There is no doubt that this man, Ibrahim Traoré, is the most popular African leader at the moment. He is a soldier who took over power in Burkina Faso and became president. His popularity highlights two key issues; the lack of faith in electoral democracy on the continent and the tragic failure of elected governments to deliver basic services to their citizens. Many political science scholars I have spoken to argue that perhaps the time has come for Africa to reflect on the type of governance that works for it. Today’s democracy is inherently foreign to how Africa was governed before colonial rule. Colonial rule brought immense cruelty to the natives, robbing them of their cattle and looting their resources. When colonialism ended, democracy was imposed as a prerequisite for independence in many African countries. Sadly, this project has largely failed, with success stories limited to just a handful of nations. Was it ever realistic to implement a one-size-fits-all approach across all 54 African countries without considering their unique local circumstances? Should Africans think about what might work in the absence of the many senseless rigged elections? Is it possible to get all stake holders on one table and instead govern together? Many thinkers have argued that Africa's governance systems were diverse before colonialism and often centered around local customs, traditions, and values. The imposition of Western-style democracy at independence did not consider these indigenous systems, and this disconnect has contributed to the challenges many African countries have faced in consolidating their democracies. Young Africans are looking at the style of governance in the Sahel region, particularly in Burkina Faso, where Ibrahim Traoré has revolutionised the country, implementing many changes that have greatly appealed to young Africans. Many young Africans are asking themselves if electoral democracy has not been part of the problems they have because it is easily manipulated and abused. “What has democracy done for Africa and Africans except feed the insatiable appetite to loot by Africa’s political elites,” many are now asking loudly! What is your view?
