Nigeria is not ready for a democracy – Jide Kosoko

Veteran Nollywood actor Jide Kosoko has stirred controversy with his recent remarks about Nigeria’s political system, suggesting that democracy may not be the right fit for the country.

During his recent appearance on The Honest Bunch Podcast, the veteran spoke on Nigeria’s current government, stressing that the democratic system currently in use is ‘Unafrican.’

The kind of government we have is unafrican and it’s why we continue to have problems. We need to design our own type of governance; we are not ready for democracy. It’s like Fela said this democracy is the demonstration of crase. I am a Nigerian and I’m entitled to my opinions so leave every other thing.

His statement quickly ignited discussions online, with many Nigerians offering mixed reactions. Many slammed the actor for speaking on the ongoing national difficulties, reminding him of his strong support for President Tinubu and his administration.
