Africa’s Rigocracy: Is Nigeria Truly Democratic?

1 / 2

This post questions whether Africa—and Nigeria especially—operate more as a rigocracy than a genuine democracy. It challenges the idea that elections are free when power seems concentrated and manipulated. It criticizes President Tinubu for singling out insecurity in the North while the entire country faces similar challenges. The author asks why regional problems are highlighted selectively. There’s praise for Ibrahim Traoré’s leadership and a call for Biafra supporters to join the conversation rather than stay silent.
