In just a few days, Sao Tome and Principe are to hold a runoff of their Presidential elections. Research recently published suggests that when you look at the whole African continent, small islands like this tend to be more democratic and that people have more freedoms. In the next edition of Africa Daily Alan Kasujja looks at whether island-states have Africa’s best democracies.

Host: Alan Kasujja (@Kasujja on twitter)
