@malachitheentrepreneur: Burkina Faso’s leader Ibrahim Traore just went on national TV and said forget democracy — it’s not for us. And honestly? Before you react, hear me out. This country has been fighting jihadist terrorism for a decade. Millions displaced. Thousands killed. What’s the point of holding elections if terrorist groups control the roads to the polling stations? Security has to come first. You build the house before you decorate it. I’m not saying authoritarianism is the answer — but I’m also not going to pretend Western-style democracy has been working for the Sahel. 🌍 #BurkinaFaso #IbrahimTraore #Africa #Democracy #Sahel
You and Traore are right. Democracy in the meantime will not do any good.

I understand African hesitancy to hear the word democracy, but if the country is not a democracy then it's a dictatorship sweetie. now I know, considering Trump is trying to become America's first dictator, using that in context seems ridiculous.

HOWEVER, to have all burkino fossil dependent on the benevolence of one man is as ridiculous as having the whole United States relying on the benevolence of Donald Trump; The country is not at the stage of elections, he still trying to establish stability and protection, so they should come to this decision at the appropriate time.
