In the same vein, banks and financial institutions that invest and manage funds stolen from Africa by unscrupulous people are also guilty of robbing the continent, through association. Democracy in Africa has been a mockery. May be we are not ripe for it. A prominent economist once said that the Nigerian economy defies all known economic principles. Maybe our political system has taken the same route.
Dictators cart away our resources and put nothing back.
Politicians have not done better. They guzzle our wealth like it is about to go out of fashion. To make ends meet, our people are begging and selling their own children. Yet again, I must ask the international community for assistance. World leaders should stop hobnobbing with African leaders who are corrupt or run corrupt administrations.
