Many corrupt leaders in Africa..
Many corrupt officals and police and judges..
Few good sea ports..
Few good trading rivers..
One of the biggest problems is the winner takes it all mentality. When a faction gets into power they will give all the government employment positions to their family's to their tribe to their political party members no matter if the people have no education on how to run the department..
In other countries for instance the bureaucracy is run by carrier bureaucrats who enter the government service after they leave college.. these people stay in the government departments until they retire no matter who wins the elections.. They simply follow the orders of the new set of politicians.. so they build up knowledge on how to run railways and roads and hospitals and schools..
But in Africa some politicians uneducated nephew get put in charge of the roads department and has no idea how to run the operation.. He gets his village friend a job as boss of the road gang and he is illiterate.. Soon the entire country is becoming an absolute mess,,
