Former Nigeria’s President Goodluck Jonathan says electoral manipulation remains one of the biggest threats in Africa.

Jonathan stated this at the 2025 Goodluck Jonathan Foundation, GJF, democracy dialogue in Accra, Ghana

According to him, when democracy fails to meet people’s expectations, it can breed desperation and pave the way for authoritarianism.

He further stated that leaders must embrace democracy that secures a better future for children and ensures their voices are heard.

“Democracy in the African continent is going through a period of strain and risk of collapse unless stakeholders come together to rethink and reform it. Electoral manipulation remains one of the biggest threats in Africa.

“We in Africa must begin to look at our democracy and rethink it in a way that works well for us and our people. One of the problems is our electoral system. People manipulate the process to remain in power by all means,” he said.
