The block chain technology from where I see it can benefit Africa in several ways. However, one issue Africa is  grappling with in the 21st century is the issue of electoral malpractices although there are still some issues with the advanced world but at the same time, this part if harnessed can be used for the betterment of Africa. The moment the process of choosing leaders can be error free, then the part to greater development can be cleared and gotten to easily.

With the blockchain, there won't be need for elections to be decides in courts or any form of rerun because everyone will be able to see it from the blockchain and if the election is done several times again, the same result will still be gotten and nothing on the contrary.
