There's no point in trying to hoard money after life, so better really to share with people.
I think we need to look at ourselves first. We should practice what we're preaching. Otherwise, we are hypocrites.
Almost every country in Africa has now instituted multi-party democracy.
The issue with international institutions is that there is a crisis of legitimacy. Trust in these institutions is a serious problem.
