We have often seen how leaders who got into power because of backing from their tribe, sect or regional and ethnicities are the most corrupt ones because they knows that their people will vote for them regardless they do any good work or not. Look at African nations and even some Arab nations the reason why they are going through corruption and suffering is because people don't vote based on merit rather on personal relationship like sect, ethnicity or religion and then there comes countries like India and Pakistan where they win based on vote from majority community by instilling fear that minorities gonna rule them if not votes to power and next five years everyone suffers.
I would hold people accountable for being in an creating a corrupt leaders rather than the leaders themself.
Tribalism and racism is the same and we all need to ensure that it does not have so much effects on us.
We need to be prepared and worked hand in hand with people around us even though they are not from our particular ethnic group or froma different colour. The world needs to be a better place not a place of violence and hatred which could bring about war.
If everyone works hand in hand to help their neighbors and community to be better, the problems of the world would be lesser.
