That is the question.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is not a question of democracy. We know that there are governance deficits in the region but is that the best way? It is about governance deficit and not democracy as a system of governance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGovernance is broader, it is about economic development, youth empowerment, it is about building infrastructure for people to realise their potential.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd that is very difficult in the global environment that we find ourselves in today.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd it is not only in Africa, it is global.
