Everyone says corruption is everywhere, but for me it seems strange to say that and then not try to put the people guilty of that corruption away.

Corruption exists everywhere.

But eradicating corruption is not enough to sustain a country.

Corruption never has been compulsory.

Politics, as the word is commonly understood, are nothing but corruptions.

Corruption is Africa's greatest problem. Not poverty. Not lack of riches. Not racism.

Corruption is just another form of tyranny.

Corruption, embezzlement, fraud, these are all characteristics which exist everywhere. It is regrettably the way human nature functions, whether we like it or not. What successful economies do is keep it to a minimum. No one has ever eliminated any of that stuff.

Corruption has reached an unacceptable level. It devours resources that could be devoted to the citizens. It impedes the proper carrying out of market rules and penalizes the honest and capable.
