If you have the opportunity to be a leader in you society, will you make the difference to end negative things from your society or you will allow the negatives things continue in the society? To me, If I have the power or influence, I will make a difference in my society to end negative things like corruption, insecurity and other things that are bad to society.
It is difficult to fight corruption in a country that sees it as normal. In some countries giving or receiving bribes is common and people see it as the way of life. In such societies, you will find it difficult to stand against corruption because you will have to do it alone.
In my office, it is normal to engage in some financial malpractice to make extra money. My fellow workers see me as evil because I don't want to join them in engaging in such practice. In fact they are seeking for means to make me lose my job because they are scared that I might expose their corrupt deeds. Deciding to be incorruptible in a corrupt country is risky. There are cases where people were killed because they refused to compromise their integrity.
As individuals, we will have to be a good example in our homes, offices, and communities. We should be good ambassadors of sincerity and incorruptibility as much as we can. But the transformation of the country will depend more on the government. If those in authority decide to do the right thing, it will be easier for citizens to follow.
