Afrika tuna sifa ya kuongozwa na wazee sana. Vile vile idadi ya viongozi wa Afrika ambao wamekuwapo madarakani kwa zaidi ya miaka 10 ni kubwa kidogo. Kama nchi nyingi zilivyoanza kuwa na term limits, kuna haja ya kuweka age limit pia kwa viongozi. Mzee wa Miaka 75 kweli anahitaji kuwa mshauri to kwa vile katika umri huo hawezi kupambana na purukushani ziendazo na majukumu yake ipasavyo. Huishia kuwa wanatuma wasaidizi wawafanyie mambo na hivyo kuruhusu makosa mengi ya kiutendaji. Angalia jedwali lifuatalo linaloonyesha jina la kiongozi, umri wake, nchi anayoongoza na muda wake madarakani:
