There is so much corruption can do to you and it is as well taking a great turn in the social and political life’s of the African continent as a whole. Despite the wealth in human and natural resources, the continent remains one of the poorest due to an ideology that pushes everyone to seek means of getting individual wealth to keep not just for themselves but for there generations. In this, the idea of a poor Africa is established and they never believe it could get better so they don’t put much effort to make things better than the way they met it. Having stakes in all the mismanagement of funds and diversion of resources.
And the greatest tragedy is that the more time passes in which this situation is not corrected the more difficult it becomes to try to do it, as the world does not wait for anyone so the gap between the African continent and the rest is only growing wider as more technologies are discovered and implemented, so unless there is a change on the policies of most of those countries they could get to a point in which getting on equal ground may be impossible even if they finally decide to try to change things up.
