It has been proven that the height a nation attains to is a function of the type of leadership of that nation. When and if a wrong set of persons find their way into leadership of a nation they tend to see their positions as compensation for their role in their candidate’s ascension to power. It is their moment of taking whatever is available for personal use; it’s the misuse of power leading to a disjointed administration. The nation suffers in growth and development.

But if a country is lucky to have a leader that understands leadership and sees it as an opportunity to serve, the people and nation are uplifted.
