Constitutions in exile: Who ate presidential term limits?

Term-limits, like other constitutional restraints in Africa, are not safe from repeal.

The constitutions made in the 1990s were meant to support the new still fragile democracies.

Robust bills of rights, rule of law, checks and balances and term-limits for presidents would secure freedoms and institutions from attack by rapacious autocrats. It has not worked, especially on term limits.
