I am from South Africa and this is what I tell people everytime we debate what is happening in Africa, I tell them "We are playing a game that we don't know the rules to"! The game is Democracy & the rule is it comes with corruption!
Thank you Sola. You make a strong case by example.
Same case for Ghana too..
Awesome submission
Only people with strong character n integrity can take such a paycut e.g. Nelson Mandela. Most commendable coz it's not always abt money. Thank you for exemplary behaviour.
Imagine if the government was committed to fighting poverty? This was in 2015 and Nigeria is 70 times worse. It's so disheartening and exhausting.
Here from your Ig page Sir
You have made the point. If everyone in the country does their parts, no doubt our country will be great in a night. We all blame the leaders, but the leaders were once an ordinary man. Every sector, businesses are exploiting each other. May Almighty God saves us.
You cannot win the fight against poverty without reducing "corruption of greed." The very nature of such corruption inevitably increases poverty.
Nice presentation bro!!!!!!
now
if only international imperial capitalism
did not rely on the LACK
of good governance
to maximize profit
Y LOS QUE NO SABEMOS INGLES COMO VAMOS HACER ESE TRABAJO BUUU :(
Stop being greedy eliminates corruption.
