The fate of the African citizen knows, in the hands of state and government, that many viewed as incompetent and hopeless, is regrettable. The corruption that was imported from foreign imperialists their poisoned the continent for years. Some of their governments and the media are out of control laws to satisfy than their twisted needs. Abuse of power and total ignorance of humanity, because they squander the resources of their country.
The West, Russia and China have, for the most part not done enough to completely stop the situation. In the case of China after the disaster humanity in Darfur, Sudan is a perfect example. These countries are now again on the same people who toiled and worked for them and deprive them of freedom and the luxury they so wish.
The agency is based in Berlin is one of Transparency International (TI), the index of Transparency International on corruption, countries, according to analysts and the attitude of officials and defines corruption as the abuse of entrusted power for private.
Nigeria
The immense scale of corruption in Nigeria, the costs resulting from the corruption and bribery of public officials and private billion and prevents sustainable economic development. Nigeria has always been on the radar of IT and is one of the most famous place in recent years. Massive diversion of public funds by members of the government is as usual to see. The regime of late General Abacha is a typical example, where billions of dollars from the coffers of the country were diverted for private purposes. Not to mention, the retired general who has made a mockery of the Babaingida this.
The current leaders in Nigeria are not left with good leadership and as a result of the current status quo. The sequence between the Nigerian government and oil giant Halliburton service is a typical example. As the saga with the management of Transcorp Plc of Nigeria. Creation of fictitious companies to raise business fees upfront.
And now it seems the banking crisis have forced the industry brought to its knees. Current chaos in the banking sector is characterized by the discovery of fraud by the owner and manager of the bank that the granting of unsecured loans, which are used to high debts and the loss of liquidity. This problem is operators to ensure a high level of leadership of the nation, including former governors and service are involved, ministers, legislators and government agencies that are non-performing bank loans to the beneficiaries.
South Africa
I think the level of corruption in South Africa is not as widespread as in other African countries due to the relatively well-functioning state institutions. Nevertheless, corruption is an obstacle for doing business around.
Corruption has been known that widely used in the granting of government contracts, especially in the central government. Mr. Zuma, the current president, was prosecuted for fraud on a multi-arms deal in 1999. A classic example of a show trial. Despite a mountain of evidence against him, he was released before his election. Some critics saw this disgraceful abuse of democracy. Can be seen for democracy and the country probably deserves better than danger.
In the same breath, the Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) strategy, with responsibility for strengthening the participation of black citizens in the economy, a problem in itself. They have been consistently condemned the treatment supporter wealthy black elite in government contracts.
Kenya
In Kenya, the government seems to struggle with their own corruption. In recent years, the government drew a list of suspected corruption in a report to the parliamentary probe. In the same report as a “list of shame” involved high-ranking officials with ties to the president, vice-president and minister in a variety of financial scandals.
Other
The same agency (TI) recently Angola, Cameroon and Mozambique gathered under the corrupt.
It is sad and depressing.
Where the continent is the Cape? There are reservations against it reflects the current continents romance with the West and others. No guarantees. These aliens seem to be corrupt themselves. They forced their way into the economy does not care about Africa and the continent. They are there for one reason only, to suck the earth dry of its natural resources, religious, ethnic, social, health problems, poverty and destruction of the people in the interior.
It seems they need the chaos of civil war to hold on the continent, as they line their businesses, which destabilized the continent with a continuous flow of oil, minerals and agricultural land.
The continent is in big trouble. These African leaders seem eager need to be smarter than decreasing the continent. The company needs to take account of before they cause major damage. Unfortunately, the same African leaders to be able to deal with greed, they are consumed on the continent always be the problem.
