THE BACKBONE OF OUR COUNTRY (BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION ❌❌❌)
Even before an English word was given to these preposterous acts, it has been in existence for ages either in form of cheating others to get what you want or taking it from others by force or either by hook or crook ...
These acts has been happening for a long time now and it is mostly common amongst the powerful and the poor or between the poor themselves...
Finally, the English word was given to it and that was how the word BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION came to existence and since then, it has come to stay but we need to eradicate it forcefully to ensure the security and safety of others...
Eradicating bribery and corruption should be our main focus in every country...
These preposterous acts are eating us all up in one way or the other and it is affecting both the image of us and that of our country...
Bribery and corruption has been occuring even before I was born and I don't think any fierce action has been taken against it in the country...
We have different pending cases everywhere regarding bribery and corruption, citizens and leaders are amongst those people involved in this immoral act, we need to take actions before it consumes both the country and it's citizen up...
We have either bribery or corruption in some countries while in other countries we have both acts taking place...
It has become the BACKBONE of some countries, that no matter how strict actions are taken against it, it can never be easily eradicated...
We need to work with force and strict actions to make sure that both BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION becomes a thing of the past and we can all Live life in a discipline and honest way...
For years now, we have been working on how to eradicate this so called menace eating our country up and I know soon we will make breakthrough regarding it's eradication...
HOW BAD HAS BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION
EATEN UP MY COUNTRY...
For years, bribery and corruption has been a reoccurring problem facing us and it has been a terror to both our people and the country at large...
Bribery and corruption has taken alot of opportunities from us and that is why we need to eradicate it with all force of seriousness...
These acts has increased the frustration and hardship of every citizens in the our country, we can't trust anybody because of previous painful experiences..
Corruption has broken the trust of people and that has affected a lot of things, the citizens has stopped contributing to things that will benefit both them and the country all because of broken trusts..they don't care what is going to happen to them as long as they are not cheated...
Bribery and corruption has lead to gender inequalities too in one way or the other, in the cause of bribery, some people who don't deserve certain opportunities are given the opportunity because of the bribe received and the ones who deserves it are deprived of it...
It is not a beautiful act, do you think that will elevate the country, it has also increased the rate of poverty in the country too...
The things belonging to people to make survival easy has been eaten up by those in power and they end up going down the drain because of the deprivation of those resources...
Opportunities are made available to those who have the resources and abilities to get it over the rightful owners, because those rightful owners aren't wealthy enough and powerful to take control of it and that is why they are deprived of those great opportunities...
The people are lamenting in various ways because it is affecting them in all manners of their living and that is why we need to take this matters very seriously and make sure bribery and corruption is forgotten..
In short, BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION has affected my country so bad because the poverty rate has increased alot, the people don't believe in the justice system again because of broken trust and with this, it has been a setback for us all...
We need our citizens support to move forward as a whole and that can be assured when these menace are eradicated...
SOLUTION TO BRIBERY AND
CORRUPTION
With these few solutions I am going to suggest, it will go a long way in reducing these menace to their least minimum if not eradicating it completely...
- There should be strict selection of disciplined, honest and modest people who are going to be trained to become THE SPECIAL ANTI BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION SQUAD( TSACS)..
These people will be selected after passing through different logical and reasoning tests to see their capabilities in the field, they will monitor all the digital and special activities of the people, to detect any suspicious act of bribery and corruption...
They will be responsible for account monitoring for both incoming and outgoing transactions of high monetary transactions...
They will work with the banks on these to get full details of their investigation before taking action...
- Electing a selfless leader to guide and monitor the citizens, these people will be responsible for directing the cries of the masses to the government so that they can investigate any other leader with corrupt intentions and making them face the justice of the law regarding the crime committed...
They are going to make sure that the citizens get what is rightfully theirs in the process..
The public should be educated on how to fight and protect their rights, so as to call attention to any bribery and corruption taking place in their surroundings and those people should be made to face the law regarding their crimes and their punishment...
Making sure the opinion of the public counts in selecting their leader and also investigating, like conducting a background check on the candidates before electing them to see if they have a clean record of crimes...
There should be a written constitution that shows the people on how corruption and bribery is frowned at and punishment of anyone found involved should be readily stated...
This will Instill fears in others and therefore, there will be no case of bribery and corruption amongst them or in the country...
- lastly, there should be a mass education of the citizens on how bribery and corruption is being FROWNED at in the country, to make sure there aren't any cases related to that..
We Know this general saying;
"When the head is faulty, the other
parts will be affected as well" ....
In conclusion, we need to be very strict and serious on handling this issue so as to ensure the overall development of both the people and the country, without the people, there is no COUNTRY...
FOR THIS TO BE EFFECTIVE, WE HAVE TO
START CORRECTING FROM THE TOP
Hello, we have chosen this post to be curated by MCGI Cares(Hive) community. We are inviting you to join our community that study the words of God.
i love the last part of your conclusion " if there is no people there is no country " well said and nice one
thnks betty...lookking forward to see yours..
This reminds me of a job I applied for a few years ago. The interviewer told me he'd approve of me getting the job as long as I teach his cousin to do the job for six months and during that period we'd share my salary lol!
wtf...can you see my friend, you are at lss in two ways....
you get to share your salary and also share the knowledge you acquired for years...lolz.pure greed ..tell me more about it my friend
The evils of bribery and corruption cannot be over emphasized.
That is to say??...
It's very very much bad.
Despite the fact that we have war on terror on our shoulders, we have a greater war on corruption to fight..How can you fight when the government is shitty and corrupt... Nothing is working without corruption hete
💔💔💔💔💔
A lot of things must be done to keep this activity in check but it isn't about the leaders alone. Aren't we citizens practicing it as well? It would be had to correct people when we are making the same error.
Yeah I acknowledge that, but we have to start correcting from the head and then they can become good example to the country
You are correct... the public has to be properly educated so that they will know that all forms of bribery and corruption will no longer be tolerated. That way they will be more inclined to report cases they come across.
Thank you for sharing this with us.
THANKS 😊
Corruption and Bribery is terrible everywhere. In your country it is obvious - in other countrries it is hidden. There is always a counterparty to the bribery and corruption. The larger institutions and government have other counterparties elsewhere. It is life a disease which like you said spread from the head downwards especially when the tone at the top is set and known then other just do the same on a smaller scale.
thanks for this beautiful comment momo
You are welcome.
Bribery doesn't even enter the minds of decent folk, but it's well known, to get anything accomplished in the bureaucracy, slipping a few bills is how things get done. It's wrong, honest people don't do that, but the perceived "grey area" between right and wrong seems to shift depending on who benefits. Truth is, neither party benefits when they both have to explain themselves on judgment day. It will be a sad day if my family had to use bribery just to sustain ourselves, I pray it never happens.
thanks for stopping by, i also pray so for my family..
i just followed you up...
"If there is no people, there is no country" ... if only our leaders would learn. Even here in the U.S., which is famous for being known as government BY THE PEOPLE, bribery and corruption has a lot to say on WHICH PEOPLE are counted. It is a worldwide struggle for righteousness and justice...
you are always making me happy with your comments...thank u ma..
You're welcome!
Where there is money, there is corruption. Some people just can't stand to work for a living. Thanks for sharing.
ohh my friend, i was expecting your comment and here it is... thanks rcaine.. one of the best xd
