Usual mistake of assigning supposed western social values to an African nation. Without the focus due to previous control by UK this would be just another banana republic story.
African mentality is winner takes all, for thousands of years that was the only way to survive, rival tribes fought almost constantly for land and scarce resources. Just because the fight is for power and money now is irrelevant.
Witness the endless conflicts across the continent, coup and counter attacks. We know that the majority of people were better off when we ran the place and brought some stability and organisation to agriculture etc but the people in charge now rarely care what happens outside their own circle. Propped up by siphoned off money from western aid, the majority are watching carefully and planning their exit strategy.
No sign of that changing, if anything the situation is getting worse. Everyone in the western power base knows this but for obvious reasons won't be seen shouting it from the rooftops.Comment
