LIMITLESS MONDAY
LET ME DRAW FROM YOUR ACCOUNT
I was in Marrakech recently. It was a nation that attracted tourists to itself. The leaders in Marrakech. They woke up to the reality that they had the power to attract tourists from all over.
Because of this. The leaders guided the country with Laws and regulations. only to ensure the system protects the tourists who bring the money in. In a nation whose economy grows with other nations' currencies. the people there recognize the euro more than any other one. The dollar is at par with the Morocco dirham.
You won't be able to make your way through their border. Without the authority wanting you to pay tax on the merchandise you bring for sale or the ones you bought to sell. Some of us begin to ask ourselves are we are an African nation. It is because an African leader chose to lead well.
Business is thriving, and everyone is more or less happy. The transport business is selling. drivers go home at the end of the day with cash. Food vendors are jubilating because tourists are out there patronizing. The open market gets flooded with tourists buying all sorts. the economy is buoyant because a Leader chose to do the right thing.
If anyone snatches another person's phone. The Law sentenced such to five years imprisonment. Another offense that causes harassment to the visitors attracts ten years. These laws came in within the one-year interval that I was there. So the street looks serene. Everybody minding their business. Police patrolled the street only to make it habitable for the visitors. And making sure the laws get implemented so that the country is suitable for others to live in.
Why are we not achieving the same quality of economy in other African countries? It is because we refuse to enforce laws and regulations. That is for orderliness and discipline. without this, the economy will end up with greedy humans.
Good News. Came when I was going out with some black soap bought in their markets. I bought some for my sister who has a” HAMMAM “in Lagos Nigeria. She used it in her Spa. The officer declines our carriage of 20kg of black soap.
But while in it, the head of officers on duty came into the discussion. He allowed us to go because NIGERIANS are good people. Those are his words. I felt on top of the world. I was able to draw from someone's good nature account. That one came from my country and it excludes me from some sort of embarrassment.
Can I draw from your account, do you have value deposited somewhere that might save your brother one day. ? This is a food for thought for all.
