In conclusion, tribalism in Africa is still going on and even though people are fighting to end it, political leaders still want it around so they have a better chance of becoming president and having power. Despite the bloody warfare between the Zulu Inkhata movement and supporters of the African National Congress.

~ TRIBALISM may refer in popular cultural terms to a way of thinking or behaving in which people are loyal to their tribe.

  • African politicians can get rid of the tribe problems by promoting nationalism or Pan-Africanism but they wont because tribes benefit the African politicians into getting into power.
  • This is why tribalism is seen as evil.
  • Elections in tribal nations aren't these countries' pride. Kenya, Rwanda, Burundi, Somalia and many other African countries suffered from post-election violence due to tribal tension.
  • Rwanda is a good example of this.

Tribalism and Politics

  • Tribalism is the reason for the major political problems in Africa.
  • In current day, tribes are still creating conflicts in Africa.
  • People from the tribe believe they're superior to the rest of the country because their president originates from their tribe which leads to conflict.
  • Presidents use tribes to their advantage to get into power.
