"Young people should vote no matter the situation"

Paul Kagame has won the last four elections in Rwanda with over 90 % of the vote. There is no powerful opposition. What does that say about democracy in the country?

For this episode of Limitless Africa, we speak to Seth Karamage, a Rwandan development economist specializing in peacebuilding and good governance. He has worked on fostering democracy in Rwanda as well as Nigeria, Kenya and Somalia. He’s a former soldier with the Rwanda Defence Forces.

This is an opportunity to ask someone who really knows the situation: Should young people bother voting in the election? And in situations where elections aren’t held or their results are not in doubt, are military or political coups ever justifiable?
