In the world today at large politic is the game that
determine the Government. In the entire World be it a presidential, monarch or
democratic system there is always politics involved. As I will define for there
to be a head of state, there most be an election and for there to be an
election there most be political parties participating. Now this is well
politics and corruption come into agreement.
In African countries like Nigeria, Ghana and all other
countries corruption is loudly pronounced while in European countries like
United states of America, Germany and others corruption is always silenced this
is while corruption to me is not only an act showing politicians giving out
money for votes, or Government workers stealing public funds rather it also
involve everything that is illegal be it said on the news or in radio stations
or silenced.
There is a point we are always not checking out. Why is it
that many people in the western world become richer everyday and the poor
become poorer everyday. Its definitely because of the activities going on
which are not being said in the news or newspapers. Where did corruption
actually originate from I will say it started right from when humans could
differentiate between political point of view and what is good for the people.
Nigerians today suffer from a stigma of corruption due to
illegal acts performed during an election or public funds. Now lets get
realistic how many humans today would pay you to serve you if there is no
profit? . Most of the times politicians are said to be corrupted and also
embezzle money what else did you expect when Nigerians were busy collecting
money to cast a vote forgetting there is
an incomplete project that needs to be completed, forgetting there is a need for
a university in you state. Now you see the actual problem faced by a country
due to corruption is not mainly based on the politics but on the people.
The Nigerian 2015 election was regard as free and fair. Was it really? Millions were spent to
get votes, millions were spent on campaign, millions were spent on media. Where
did this money come from is it not from the same government, Many politicians
go for bank loans, don’t we think they will have to pay back?. In western
countries corruption exist but in a more under worked and silenced manner. In
the US a presidential Candidate trials to convince you not with money but with
words of trust. Is that same in Africa?. Africa is one of the richest countries
when it comes to Natural Resource yet no Africa country is said to be
developed.
Corruption in the world today is now a daily game played
twice in each sentenced made by humans, In the near future it might even be
legal and added to the constitution of countries in the world why because
individuals has taken politics as a dirty game, and has sold their votes for
money. Are we developing or we are demolishing. Politics is for all, its for
the Nation, its for you and I. Years past legends fought against it and they
conquered so pick up that same fight for your vote and for you Nation
Politicians are not corrupt, The Government is not corrupt.
The people are the ones corrupt. That’s why Abraham Lincoln defined democracy
as a government of the people, For the people and most important by the
people.
