- Neglect of the healthcare system, leaving millions without access to proper medical care.
- Lack of investment in education, leading to a decline in quality and accessibility of schools.
- Inaction on security issues, resulting in increased violence and insecurity across the nation.
- Nepotism and favoritism in government appointments, undermining meritocracy and fostering division.
- Failure to tackle unemployment and economic hardship, exacerbating poverty levels.
- Authoritarian leadership style, silencing dissent and undermining democratic principles.
- Disregard for the rule of law, leading to a breakdown of justice and accountability.
- Lack of transparency in decision-making, breeding suspicion and mistrust among the populace.
- Ineffectiveness in managing the country’s resources, leading to economic instability.
