ThankGod Omori Jesam, often known as TG Omori, a Nigerian music video director, has explained why he doesn’t think democracy can be real in Africa.
He claimed that those in positions of authority frequently use the continent’s poverty to buy votes.
The 28-year-old said that monarchies make for better governments than democracies.
This was said by TG Omori during a recent appearance on the Zero Conditions podcast.
He stated:
“How do I feel about Nigeria? Nigeria is a jungle. I did not vote. I was in SA (South Africa during the elections). I intentionally didn’t vote.
“I don’t believe in democracy. We were supposed to be led by kings. I feel like democracy is a freaking scam in the sense that superrich people can always buy their way through it. Not around the world but in Africa. As long as hunger is still a tool then democracy will aways have a price.”
The video director said he has witnessed people selling their votes when he was younger.
