And even in newly formed countries post British colonialism. Immediately an upstart elite trained in colonial ways as ‘’Babus’ and military officers returned after WW2, began expropriating resources.
So now we have brown neocolonialists pushing a bastardized agenda for themselves.
Along came religious fundamentalism. Game over.
We still have puppeteer western masters as king makers who have driven good governance into the abyss.
Balkanization of the country I speak of is inevitable.
