"content": " Hon. Deputy Speaker, when we open the arena for everyone, unlike when we have nobilities and certain classes, we are able to get the best from many other people. The opposite is the case when we have a closed system where the leadership can only be chosen from a certain class or family, as it was before the advent of democracy. There are so many examples to cite. If you go through the history of Europe, real growth in Europe, especially in the United Kingdom (UK), came about after the glorious revolution, where a new set of laws advanced people to choose their leaders. The revolution paved way for liberalism, and people were able to propel talented people into the leadership of the nation. That was when the world started witnessing real development in the UK. A notable example in Africa is Botswana, which grew because people there embraced solid democracy."
