All African countries are prone to corruption where whatever you want can be bought for the right price. My Dad had his picture taken with the President of India once because my dad got on extremely well with the Deputy Ambassador here in the UK.
So it made a nice pic. Social media didn’t exist in those days. My dad was extremely well connected in journalism and political circles back in the day and we have the pictures of him and my mum with all of them taken at the time.
Who cares! Has he been appointed as a paid advisor nooo! He’s being courted as a donor to politicians so they can siphon off the funds to their private offshore accounts!
