ABSTRACT

The electoral period is subject to several activities that interest the youth of Ubundu in 2018, the youth of Ubundu were attracted by the electoral activities which characterized the violence observed in the behavior of the youth in the acts and threats of politicians against other politicians in relation to the interests of the population. Instrumental violence is the one that interested us most in this study because it targeted a specific objective, used for a specific political purpose.

The youth of Ubundu Territory were attracted by this ideological conception where it was the instrument and symbol of liberation and the founding of a nation, we moved to a conception which manifests itself by brutal domination, oppression and appropriation in its different forms known in Africa: criminal (Ex. of the DRC, Nigeria, Equatorial Guinea), greedy (Liberia, Sierra Leone, Mozambique), ethnocentric (Kenya, Togo. Cameroon) or genocidal (Rwanda).

Keywords: electoral violence, electoral campaign, political communication.
