The citizenry are giving the political actors undue freedom and unnecessary democratic space to operate within the lens of mediocrity. Politics should drive home developments. Politics as a social science should be able to help solve the numerous societal problems that the society is bedeviled with, however, the style of politics been practiced in this era rather complicate and compound the problems that the society is already facing.
The underdevelopment of the various communities within certain catchment area can partly be attributed to the lack of zeal on part of the people to hold the political leaders accountable. The elected and appointed leaders are regarded as the agents of developments but as smart as they are, start to play on the intelligence of the citizens by resorting to mediocrity to lure them into thinking that they are their saviours for development.
It can be seen that there’s a natural deviation from their mandates to catalyzing for rapid development. The era of giving out coins and 5kg weight of rice to the people during the day of accountability and judgement to meander their way through to the leadership should be a history.
These politicians always see critics as enemies. They are comfortable dealing with sycophants and unleashing financial atrocities with their partners in crime on the innocent souls in the society. It’s about time the electorates reminded the leadership of their core responsibilities as being agents of developments.
.
Whether it’s taken or not, the political leaders and actors are the responsible for the societal predicaments in the area of underdevelopment the society finds itself.
It’s advised that the society engages people who have appetite to developing humanity and society to involve actively in the mainstream politics. Let’s encourage and help those who aren’t self seekers but rather development oriented and propel them to climb the political leadership ladder.
Political leader should not be an alien to development and enemy group success. The society can only develop if the citizenry hold the political leaders accountable and see politics as a very important tool for development.
Politics is a serious enterprise for development and the actors should stop playing mediocre in this arena. Giving out goodies and pesewa can’t be a panacea to the societal problems. The solution is putting people who have exhibited high level of patriotism and development loving personalities into political leadership positions.
POLITICS IS A MEDIUM OF DEVELOPING THE SOCIETY SO THEREFORE THE ACTORS ON THIS TEAM SHOULDN’T BE SELF SEEKERS..
