Nigerian music video director ThankGod Omori Jesam, popularly known as TG Omori, has revealed why he does not believe democracy can be legitimate in Africa.

He said power mongers often leverage the poverty on the continent to buy votes.

The 28-year-old said a monarchical system of government suits her better than democracy.

TG Omori stated this while appearing in the latest episode of the Zero Conditions podcast.

He said, “How do I feel about Nigeria? Nigeria is a jungle. I did not vote. I was in 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 always have a price.”

The video director said he witnessed people selling their votes when he was younger.
