Africans may be myopic in recognizing the most difficult issue facing them– the general agreement is that HIV is the number one killer but I disagree because Bad Leadership takes precedence and ranks higher in priority. While HIV infects in an Arithmetic Progression, Bad Leadership attacks in a Geometric Progression. Before HIV can attack a whole country, it will take years but with Bad Leadership, a week is enough to destroy millions of people and the initial target populace for the two syndromes is those in the low-income bracket.
The only prevention we seem to have against these viral infections is how we choose to exercise our choices. One of the most difficult things to control, as humans is our emotion; somehow, our emotions fool us and we cannot make an informed decision when the moment comes. However, I will keep saying the obvious; “Prevention is cheaper and an easier solution than cure” but when you are already infected with the syndrome, you just wait while millions die because as you proffer solutions, puns must also die.
