The types of democracy are ubiquitous and each of them undoubtedly demonstrates its power, making operators in countries more unwavering and positive in achieving fundamental individual and collective goals. This is a component of the manifestation of the global acceptance of democracy as an ideal formula that each country proudly presents its own style with the sole aim of convincing others that it is on the right track.
The recent political peaks, for example in the People’s Republic of China and Great Britain, which led to the election of former President Xi Jinping as General Secretary of the ruling Communist Party of China (CPC) and the resignation of the latter’s Prime Minister, Liz Truss, through her tenure are evidence of both the feasibility and profitability of the formula in force in each of the two Countries. These are two occasions that, not similar to each other, have evidently demonstrated the inherent ability of the formula to maintain beloved structures and absorb unforeseen impacts.
The classes that have hitherto had to be drawn from the progressions in any of the countries are such that they have obviously underlined the indispensability of credible political leadership and a fluid governing procedure for the progression and stability of each political regime. An intelligent understanding and full application of the principles of any selected ideology or preferred model(s) are the secrets to making dreams come true.
As complex entities that have been able to maintain all those governing structures that constantly serve their respective populations, China and Britain are, in fact, subjects of scrutiny for many other nations of the world. The structures and styles of both countries, ideologically in conflict with China. being a champion of socialism while Britain practices capitalism, they are considered strong enough to secure and facilitate the distribution of the dividends of smart governance and therefore worthy of loan and adaptation across some other countries.
While the election of President Jinping as general secretary of the CCP in power amounts to reinforcing confidence that China enjoyed moderate political stability, Liz Truss’s resignation as British prime minister just forty-five days after taking office following what she described as her inability to “fulfill the mandate for which I elected through the Conservative Party. ” An indication. For its part, of immense respect for the yearnings and longings of British citizens. Each of the two measures has already contributed to strengthening the political formula and governance procedure in China and Britain, respectively.
President Jinping’s emergence as general secretary of the CPC at a congress on Sunday, October 22, 2022, and the expression of a renewed will to take the country to higher heights emerged as basic steps toward updating the country’s key purposes. Perhaps nothing can be more inspiring and encouraging than the CCP’s determination to, as stated in the report of its last Congress, work assiduously to achieve “the centennial purpose of making China a wonderful socialist country fashionable in all respects in the next five years and beyond, and advance the rejuvenation of China’s path to fashion. “
The five key steps proposed that became known as the main conclusions of the congress debates and that are imperative for the implementation of the rejuvenation task come with a more vigorous implementation of economic policies and an equitable distribution of income or benefits derived from them, the provision of security with a strong focus on food and energy security, a further adaptation of Marxist ideology to the “Chinese context and the desires of the times,” the progression of consciousness and zeal needed to cope with “strong winds, troubled waters, and damaging storms” that will naturally and often seek to interfere with efforts to achieve authentic progression and, in the end, genuine transformation of China into a much more filthy rich country. strong, democratic, culturally advanced, harmonious and beautiful” until 2050. This means that the Chinese people, based on their delight in the party and the transparency they have now made to console themselves with their achievements and even move forward, are convinced that there are better times ahead.
The British edition of the progression is such that it has now made much clearer the fact that its formula is a formula that leaves no room for indolence or violation of codes of conduct by leaders. Truss’s resignation is the apparent result of a wonderful dose of diligence. by the citizens and a demonstration of sensitivity to the emotions of the rest of the people by the former prime minister.
In other words, the responses of citizens and Prime Minister Truss to the economic upheavals his governing technique had caused in Britain helped save the country from some of the most serious crises foreseen. The speed with which the measures were taken, even with some of the accidental negative consequences on the country’s economy, was exemplary.
Although he has already been branded an amateur and slow learner, new Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, who has pledged to lead Britain into a “new era of optimism,” would have found that the task is far more complicated if subsequent steps have not been taken. What remains now is the correct application of the right measures only so that the small mismatches caused by beyond the errors are properly addressed.
It is instructive that all those developments have taken a stand at a time when China-friendly Nigeria, a former British colony, is preparing for general elections scheduled for early next year. All questions related to the formidable and credible political culture and responsiveness of leadership that have generated the advances in both countries deserve to be of great interest to Nigeria’s leaders and other political actors.
These are, in fact, advances that compel Nigerian political parties, especially the megaparties among them, to begin to re-examine their conceptual, structural and operational frameworks in order to satisfactorily construct some fundamental facts about the events within them and evaluate well. their ability and promptness to fulfill promises. The apparent avoidable rancor that continues to characterize occasions in the highest parties, as well as the annoying arrogance of the elected leaders, even in the face of their inability to meet the fundamental expectations of the population, testify to the fact that either the political formula and the procedure of governability are deficient.
There can be no better time for Nigerian political parties and all other parties interested in the task of democratization to take home all the lessons of other democracies than now. This is the only way to lay the foundations of political parties and fill the existing gaps in the country’s governance.
