No society will grow or develop when the leaders or government aren't doing their job right. Many failed society was colb as the result bad form of government projected powers and administrative costs. Many Africa leaders are fixed or low in development priorities or even society. When leaders fails in their capacity to build expected society it cause such societal crime and poverty-stricken members.
This also can lead to poor standard of living, bad government ruins the beauty of progressive society and create unemployment, bad government detorate peace and escalate hunger, theft, insecurities and cyber crime to the youth as only give choices where a failed leader is the head.
There id s saying which goes: people deserve the government they got.
It is true a bad government, one crippled by corruption and bad practices is never going to push a nation towards development and improvements of the quality of life for their citizens. Though, on the other hand, those who are in power and are pretty much crooks continue to be there because the people allows them to.
My country, Venezuela, id s good example of it, we decided to give a socialist party the change the country and all ended up bad for our economy and our personal and political freedom.
If people and their culture tolerate corruption and bad governance, then the problems of bad governance will be perpetual and there will be no light at the end of the tunnel. It may sound sad, but it is how it works in the end.
