With the way the world is revolving things are beginig to change either to please or displease us. Most times we are forced and deprived of this our freedom of expression as a result of specific rules implemented by the government and this same set of government we choose them ourselves. All we have to do is to keep mute at some certain levels and stick to the rules given in oder to avoid the penalties of breaking any.
Sometimes we have to compromise our beliefs the way we display them outwardly and preserves the inner self expression to ourselves just to avoid certain punishments
This is what many people are facing at this time, though this has been in existence for a very long time but it is on a rise in political era where a leader decides to do whatever he or she chooses to do without seeking the opinion of any person, the freedom of speech that was common, critics that push the political office holders to perform well in office is no more wanted because they politicians wants to enslave everyone by introducing what the called hate speech, using this method to shut the mouth of people up, so that people will be afraid to air out their views because of the penalties attached, it is only in the western world where freedom of speech is been allowed to an extent but in African countries is no no, to me I think most African countries are not riped for independence, the inhumane character in African leaders is much, we really need sanitization to get it right in Africa.
