In West Africa the gap of the poor and the rich has worsened under the so-called democatic leadership. These happpen, because radicals religius ideas appeals to the public, has become the reflection of social and economical problems in these society, when government corrupts, when the gap between the rich and the poor has been intoleable, when a country is in financial ruin, or when the new cultural values have been forced to replace the old ones, and many more scenarios.
