Western countries failing to live the talk

France president Nicolas Sarkozy(blog.wblackegray.com)

Western countries declared themselves the first world , that is setting the agenda and the most democratic "world" in the globe. From their pride perspective point of view( western countries) they have labelled Africa the continent of disorder, corruption,violation of the human rights and dominated by the "worst dictators ".

However a cloud of shame has fallen upon them after Nicolas Sarkozy declared the re-election bid.The "democratic" leader rose into power on 16 may 2007. However, since his ascension France has gradually been hit by the economic melt down. According to France 24, Nicolas has been accused for squandering public funds in his fruitless political campaigns.Francois Hollande who is also the candidate revealed that the president candidate was already known (five years back) . The incumbent is fighting to run for the second term up coming presidential elections even though he is gradually sliding to the political dustbins.

The impact of Sarkozy stance seem to be less just because the incident has happened in the West . The story is not glamorised ,sensationalised neither trivialised like what the global media does when reporting on African issues. This piece seek to support the last posted story which was hammering that there is no direct democracy which is always claimed by the Western countries.
