Poverty and inequality are two of the most destructive forces that can breed hostility against the state. When large segments of the population are trapped in cycles of poverty and denied access to basic resources, opportunities, and rights, it creates a deep sense of disillusionment and resentment toward the government and political systems. People who experience extreme hardship often feel neglected, marginalized, and excluded from the benefits of societal progress. This disenfranchisement can lead to a breakdown in trust between citizens and the state, and in many cases, results in open hostility or protest. Inequality further exacerbates this sense of injustice. When the gap between the rich and the poor continues to widen, it fosters feelings of alienation among those who are economically disadvantaged. It is hard to feel loyalty or solidarity with a system that appears to favor a select few while the majority struggle to survive. The perception that power and wealth are concentrated in the hands of the elite fuels the sense that the government is working for a privileged class, not for the people as a whole. This hostility often manifests in various forms: from civil unrest and protests to political apathy and the erosion of democratic values. When citizens feel that their basic needs are not being met or that their voices are not heard, they are less likely to engage positively with the state and more likely to challenge its authority, legitimacy, and policies. Addressing poverty and inequality is not only a matter of social justice but also of national stability. Governments that fail to act decisively on these issues risk undermining their own legitimacy and fueling the very hostility that can destabilize societies. To restore trust and unity, leaders must prioritize equitable policies that address the root causes of poverty, promote inclusive economic growth, and work toward reducing inequality. A state that truly serves the interests of all its people, not just the elite, can foster a sense of belonging and loyalty, helping to bridge divides and create a more peaceful, prosperous society.

I would actually add corruption, which also fuels inequalities & poverty as what's causing those hostilities

Exclusion is the features of officials in Ethiopia, maybe in all African countries.

Kigali - why did Brian not choose " democracy " or "popularly elected government " for this conference in Kigali? Maybe even mention the war in the DRC, just to spice it up a little...

Periodic elections doesn't mean good governance, Africa need socialism or communism as propounded by Nkrumah and Sankara

Nkrumah was a failure.Thomas Sankara, a visionary was never given a chance, like Patrice Lumumba, he was murdered before any of their ideas could be realised.

What is the essence of talking big on African affair while you keep aloof from party politics ? From political party n your country and see how you will preside. Otherwise this is basically channel noise
