The corrupt state of African politics

Prempeh decries that running a country in Africa is now a business, therefore persons who are appointed into positions should have contributed financially or through any unscrupulous means.

 He said this could probably explain the quality of persons in influential positions across the African continent. “So important offices of state, that should go to people of talent, integrity and devotion to the national project are given as rewards to persons who made contributions”.  Instead of public officers seeing their office as a place of trust where intelligent people go to serve, politicians see it as a place to solve their earthly material problems and opportunity to correct financial deficit”.
