The best answer is **B**. When the party in power loses an election and peacefully hands power over to the winner, it indicates a functioning democratic process, which is not a problem contributing to the difficulty in creating democratic governments. The other options (A, C, and D) highlight issues that have indeed contributed to challenges in establishing democracy in many African countries.
