In the modern society, leadership is portrayed as gain of resources and wealth. This is also evident in the betrayal in the city, where Boss is greedy, Mulili as a betrayer, Tumbo is corrupt, Nicodemo is selfless, and many others as illustrated below.
First and foremost, Boss portrays greedy nature, he exploits the economy of Kafira, by keeping a lot of government money in the foreign countries. He also favours his close kins like Mulili, and goes ahead to award him the University milk tender. This proves bad leadership as seen in most countries.
Secondly, Tumbo, as a government official is corrupt, he is allocated money to fund the play writing competition, and awards it to Jusper, as a winner, giving out a third of the amount allocated, and keeping the rest. He also misleads Regina by telling her to go to Boss if hr really wants Mosese released, something which he knew Boss character. This fully shows how those in leadership currently, are corrupt hence leading most countries astray.
Thirdly, Nicodemo is selfless, he plants one kilogram of opium in Mosese's vehicle, making him imprisoned. Also, as a government official, he doesn't represent Kafira people in the meeting, yet they appointed him to serve them.
Lastly, Mulili is a betrayer. He reports to Boss that Kabito attends meeting while drunk, abuses Boss himself, something that led to the killing of Kabito. Also, he reports to Boss of having been snatched the University milk tender, yet it was owned by Kabito. This vividly prove how the government betrays it's promises to people.
In conclusion, betrayal, mudder, corruption and many other evil deeds are the key causes of downfall in most governance and its high time, it should be get rid off, so as to ensure better Living.
