I think Roden needs Gigi as a leader to the Slayers, to take over after Buffy (The queen is dead, long live the queen) - and since *he* controls Gigi, that way he gets himself an army of superpowered beings (like what Maggie Walsh was aiming for in S4), and can thus take over the world. Yes abducting the world's leaders could be done, but having a superior force is far better - especially one as malleable and endlessly usable as a Slayer army. It's about power. The Slayers have it. (Magic is good, but also complicated, risky and takes a lot out of the magician.)
In the first seven seasons, human world and magic world existed in parallel without attempts to conquer each other. Can I point out that roughly once every year, that was *exactly* what would happen? Beginning with 'The Harvest'...
