The history of corruption in Africa is sad and wide spread, far, far more than just Qadaffi or Kenyatta. Millions of Africans in almost every country have seen their leaders get rich, live in plalaces, drive huge cars while the people starve. This is common from Zimbzbwe to Libya, with possibly the worst offences in Nigeria and Uganda. Greedy black African leaders like Mugabe, Kaunda, Bokassa, Mobutu, Lumumba, Amin, Abacha, have wrought far more harm to their people than any European countries ever did. -And the list is long, full of evil men who made their people miserable. - I lived in many countries in Africa and saw very few honest leaders. For the most part common Africans of every race and tribe are hardworking, honest and good people. They have been treated outrageously by their own governments and so-called leaders.

Answer 2

Corruption in Africa has existed for centuries, driven by factors such as colonial legacy, lack of transparency, weak institutions, and poverty. Many African countries have struggled with high levels of corruption, leading to mismanagement of resources, undermining of development efforts, and erosion of public trust in government. Efforts to combat corruption in the region have been ongoing, with some progress made through initiatives like anti-corruption laws, transparency measures, and international partnerships.
