The Future Of Democracy And Multi-party Politics (1726 words) |
 | Democracy is a complex process of institution-building, development of a liberal political culture and traditions, an uninhibited growth of free speech, an unfettered development of the press, and respect for not only the rule, but the due process of law. |
| All of the parties in their manifestoes expressed their commitment to the three pillars of democracy: freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and the rule of law. |
| That the thirteen parties were personality-based, rather than ethnic or regionally based, may serve as a good beginning and a departure of what is typical of most other African countries where political parties are developed based on ethnic or regional loyalties, i.e., Rwanda, Nigeria, etc., which has so often destroyed the very fabric of democracy. |
