COVER STORY
THE CURSE OF
LEADERSHIP IN
AFRICA
By Dr. Wale Akinyemi
‘‘ No one can deny
the fact that the most
underdeveloped countries
of the world like in the
tropical and semi-tropical
zones, are between the
Tropic of Cancer and
Tropic of Capricorn.
Could the curse be that the
heat created a conducive
environment for parasites
and other life forms
dangerous to the existence
of man in the tropics while
the winter was the blessing
that killed the insects and
parasites harmful to man? ’’
