A saying was once said ,”Politics is dirty game” and there is no one who can oppose or debate about this saying, especially in African nations.
African leaders are so greedy and selfish , they just want to rule the country and exert so much pressure on it’s citizens.
Look at the like of the late president of zimbabwe ,Mugabe ,who ruled the country as if he was a dictator.
He made the lives of the citizens so hard and miserable because he didn’t want anyone else to rule the country until he was removed forcely from power by military.
Politicians before they get to power ,they convince citizens of how they’re going to improve the economy ,improve the social well being of the people build hospitals e.t.c and so many other empty promises to lure the minds of the citizens to vote for them ,but when they get to power they forget about all this and start working on how they will grab land , misuse public funds, and secure a good position in the next general elections.
Africa cannot develop if their leaders cannot unite ,Africa has so many resources which it can use to compete with other European countries in terms of economy , but with the kind of leader we have who only think about self gain instead of service to the nation ,we can’t develop.
Kenya produces very good coffee which sent to USA as a raw material and comes back to Kenya fives times expensive more than it was exported.
Angola has oil which is supposed to benefits it’s citizens of which it doesn’t. We ,Africans, are suffering economic crisis because of the leaders we elect.
This means that the blame is on us ,we are the reason why we’re suffering,if we choose good leaders then,there will be no tribal clashes , boarder disputes , ,terrorism , corruption cases e.t.c.
African leaders are rushing to borrow loans from China ,world bank and other European nations not because the continent is poor but because they have failed to utilise their resources .
I wish we had many and more Africans leaders like Nelson Mandela who was very concerned with uniting people from different races(white and black),he had no greed for power and he was always ready to serve his people.
Every African should think before electing any leader let us not be lured by their empty promises ,let us be moved by their good actions
