This is a difficult question to answer because Africa is a large continent, and it contains a number of countries. Some are quite unstable (Democratic Republic of Congo for example), while others are closer to what we in the west would consider democracies (South Africa, for example). Some African countries have a fairly strong government and citizens can vote: Ghana comes to mind, and South Africa too has had democratically elected governments since the end of apartheid. Others are run by dictators who give citizens few rights (Zimbabwe, for example), or are still trying to overcome years of corruption and instability (such as Liberia). Without knowing which country you are asking about, it is difficult to discuss the rights of citizens, since Africa spans the gamut from brutal dictatorships where citizens are nearly powerless to modern and growing parliamentary democracies, where citizens can and do participate in trying to move the country forward.
