The concept of democracy will be more understood to people if traces the orign of democracy will be more understood to people grasp well the meaning and other concepts related to democracy.
The origin of democracy
Democracy come from the Ancient. Greece where by people exercise power directly to the government. They were making cecision opinion while fully participating in the government. The word democracy therefore originates from two Greek words which are “Demos” “Kratos” Demos” means people, and “Kratos” means power.

However other scholars have attempted define the word democracy as follwos: Abraham Lincon define democracy as the government of the people, for the people and by people. Form this definition we can extract three concepts as follows:
“of the people” means that the people are sovereign and that government derives all its powers and authority from the hards of people those who are chosen by the people to be representatives in government have given power by being elected.
For the people” means that the government is there to serve interest of the people. From this concept, we see the government providing all social economic, political and cultural services. Government has improved transport networks, health centers such hospitals and educational services by adopting different policies such secondary education Program SEDP and Primary Education Program PEDP
“By the people”means the system of the government, leadership and supreme power belong to the people. It is the system of governance where by people form nucles base all decisions and power.
From these concepts we can say that in a democratic state people give their consent to the representatives to rule on behalf of them. Ti means that people choose their representatives who can from the government and rule one behalf of them. i.e indirect democracy.
