David Ajayi writes in African Loft "...Africa is fraught with reckless display of power and often senseless use of state resources to project an aura of authority and prestige..." referring to an excerpt:
A peculiar display of power in the continent, cannot be over-looked. Some call it the conspicuous vulgarity of state power. Others call it the black man’s syndrome. Oh just look at it: a situation where one person commands over ten cars and other buses in his convoy even when most of the high schools in the country have no roofs over them, not to talk of computers, cannot be something very pleasant to the human psyche.
He Asks:
When are we going to “step on the brakes” and start examining practices that have become not only obsolete, but discard also those that are grossly anti-productive and pro-corruption?
“A situation where one person [government official] commands over ten cars and other buses in his convoy even when most of the high schools in the country have no roofs over them” is certainly wrong and must be addressed. But who will take the first step? Who cares?
