The Silent Conspiracy: North and East Africa’s Leadership Failure
HornCurrent.com | Opinion
By Hakimi A political Analyst and Author
A dangerous political conspiracy is quietly unraveling across North and East Africa — a conspiracy not of foreign intervention, but of internal decay. From Khartoum to Addis Ababa, from Cairo to Mogadishu, a generation of leaders has failed to rise above personal power struggles, leaving nations paralyzed by corruption, repression, and conflict.
In Sudan, the promise of revolution has dissolved into civil war, where generals play chess with human lives while the region watches in silence. Ethiopia’s illusion of democratic transition is shattered by ethnic warfare, authoritarian consolidation, and regional destabilization. Somalia, still grappling with insecurity, is trapped in a cycle of fragile governments and foreign dependency. Egypt, once a center of Arab political thought, has been reduced to a militarized state where dissent is a crime.
This is not merely mismanagement — it is a coordinated failure to lead. Leadership across these regions has become an elite conspiracy to control, exclude, and silence. National development is sacrificed for personal survival. The people are spectators in a game rigged against their hopes.
Africa does not lack vision — it lacks leaders who are brave enough to serve rather than rule. The path forward requires dismantling this political conspiracy and restoring governance grounded in accountability, inclusion, and long-term vision.
