Politics in Africa is very funny and we keep on sending the education out there to the general public, about they not engaging in harmful activities for their favorite politician. It is funny how people will show love for politicians, and go the extent of doing everything just to see them on the seat, but the politicians see otherwise.
They finally win the seat and decide to forgo the people who struggled and toiled to see them on the seat. When they get to win the elections, it is all about their family and not people who toiled with their blood, sweat and tears. I bet they wouldn’t even listen to you if you lay down your complaints before them.
Jibrin Ibrahim is a political scientist in Nigeria and he has come up with a simple statement to summarize politics in Africa. This statement has ended up making waves on the internet due to the element of truth it possesses.
Looking at his quote, it goes beyond the physical. It goes a long way to tell people how cunning African leaders could be.
There has been many different cases where we hear people sustaining injuries, just because of chaos which came about as a result of politics. Ask yourself, do the political leaders even care for such people? For some victims, they are attended to right when the incident happens and that is all. For others, the story is even different. No one goes to them.
Never let anyone hire you to do evil acts with the intention of getting them power. Remember, you have a family to feed. Dying or sustaining some injuries can affect their quality of life. Politicians are skilled at lying, never fall for them.
