this input is clearly a very intelligent analysis of the facts and truly reflects the state of affairs in sub saharan africa and other poor nations. Objectively, one can read from this that tribalism and nepotism is; costing us senseless death, encouraging corruption, poverty and ignorance.
Road traffic accidents are known to be a major cause of death and disability through out the developing world, but nowhere is the problem so acute as sub-saharan africa. Bad roads, aged vehicles and lax regulations are all considered major contributing factors to africa's road fatality and accident numbers, themselves three times as great as the continent's share of motor vehicles. This situation could not have happened if qualified contractors (not family relations or people who can offer the most kickbacks) were given the contracts to construct our roads. Road accidents alone are the third biggest killers in sub saharan Africa.
Just think of this; i wake up in the morning, brush my teeth and wash up, walk to the roadside, get on a bus, it's a 'normal' day. The driver speeds off and before long the bus is right under a trailer, a fatal accident! passersby rush me to the hospital and my left leg and right arm are amputated.No escaping, Ive got to live the rest of my life like this. Who put me in this state?
Mr. President: allowed the wrong roads to be constructed by the wrong people, wrong drivers to drive the wrong cars, allowed money mongering unqualified police officers roam the streets, yes Mr. President doesn’t want to change the status quo or offend his tribesmen who help rig elections for him.
Our leaders are only interested in amassing personal wealth and exploiting the daunting stigma of differences imposed on the face of sub saharan africa.Personally I think african heads of state are the core cause of our present quagmire. All over sub saharan africa, corruption and nepotism should be made a crime against humanity punishable by death on a guillotine.
