            widespread inequalities, but many African nations can demonstrate significant and

            sustainable progress in their economic development.

            Today's African leaders are more determined than ever to walk in their own footsteps

                                                                     ɡ

            Development & Democracy

            It’s not unreasonable to expect for it to take up to 3 generations for any significant change
            in societal behaviour to become the norm. If m’zungu donor nations and their institutions

            want Africa to develop quickly, they will have to accept a form of African government that
            imposes change.


                                                                                     ɡ
                                                                                m̩
            (Recent m’zungu history gives the African every right to question the reality of  'zuŋ u democracy.)
            m̩    'zuŋ u should put their m’zungu dogma behind them and focus more single-mindedly
                   ɡ
            on achieving measurable significant progress in economic development and reduction in

            inequality.

            Understanding Corruption


            The imposition by Bretton Woods Institutions (BWI) of ‘structural adjustments’ and
            ‘conditionalities’ over too short a timescale has allowed m’zungu corporations to take

            advantage of immature tax regimes and regulatory authorities. They have created a space

            in which IFF can more easily flourish.
