Corruption has wreaked havoc in Africa more than HIV/AIDS, cancer, and malaria combined. The war and hunger in East Africa, the political unrest in North Africa, the drug issues in South Africa, and the rise in militancy and terrorism in West Africa are all children of corruption. The threat is not what we have suffered so far but what will befall us if fail to act now. In a few years from now, it will be difficult to convince young Africans that corruption is not our culture. Culture is a way of life, and it is inherited. And so it is in Africa, one government inherits corruption from another. This book is a message to every young African: Corruption is and can never be our culture; we just got it wrong somewhere. It is time to fix Africa. I will not let anyone walk through my mind with their dirty feet (Mahatma Gandhi). Do not inherit corruption!
