AFRICAN CITIZENS INTELLECTUAL DISHONESTY

in #life6 years ago

Many a time, people point hands at politicians by the mention of corruption. Inasmuch as almost if not all of our African politicians especially Ghana are corrupt, most of the ordinary citizens are very corrupt too. The Security personnel from Police to Military, Civil Servants and cooperate bodies all have corrupt individuals amongst them.

Yes, our politicians are our leaders and their actions and inactions have effects on us but to change them, we must be the change ourselves. Imagine contractors not paying bribes to politicians just to influence the award of contracts to their favour. Just imagine a society where citizens wouldn't pay a token to headteachers before their wards are admitted to a Government's free SHS.

Wouldn't politicians learn from citizen's if w stop paying bribes to get our passport done in the shortest time than usual duration? Let's remember that, a bribe offeree and receiver are both guilty. I, therefore want to use this medium to urge every citizen to be the change we want by being an Anti-Corruption crusader. Wishing everyone on the blockchain the best that this week brings.

Great share- this is a global epidemic but viewing history of many African countries the corruption is massive.

I can't wait for the day that citizens All Over The World will stand up to the ruling class. We the People of each nation should be in charge of our politics for we are the Majority. Their laws mostly benefit their wealthy friends and paychecks from those friends and the laws in turn punish the people. We need to make a stand.

It is a shame that people will sell their souls to be in the ruling classes grips just to receive some kickbacks but it is also human nature.

You have said it all. Thanks for your addition.
