This discussion document examines the role of leadership in Sub-Saharan Africa vis-à-vis tribalism; it explores the historical to the current impact of tribalism on the election outcomes and voting patterns of The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Zambia, Malawi and Zimbabwe. Furthermore, it utilizes a proposed model, with tribalism as the pivotal variable, to investigate the role of tribalism in elected state governments. It concludes by proposing a predictive model, via the lens of tribalism, by extrapolating the relationship between tribalism and other factors and their interconnectivity towards projecting the future of Sub-Saharan Africa and its impact on the region.
