When someone becomes so intoxicated with power, the person makes a fool of himself. Because he doesn't listen or make room for the opinion of others, his 'followers' will allow him make decisions that will lead to his down fall.

surely true! nice comment.
Leadership is not tyranny. Power should not be abused. A power drunk leader is a failed leader already
Strong points here, thing is we should know all these. This principles should be at least etched in our brains but look at the society we live in. An appointed politician is automatically a lord in his community and moves about with escorts and official details.
After his first tenure, he pays for our votes and again we put him back in the seat. Is it that we don't know how power drunk he is, of course we do. But poverty and illiteracy cloud our judgements. I personally think that until poverty and illiteracy is eradicated from the system, African countries will continue to have power drunk leaders.
Or how do you hold one accountable for his misdeeds when you don't even see it as a wrong. How do you not collect money from them, when you barely earn enough to eat?
Such is the predicament that has befallen these countries.
