It doesn't only happen in African countries, rather it happens in other third world countries including my country, Philippines.

Why they demand or accept bribes? It's simple. They are lovers of money or materialistic people. We cannot just blame everything with poverty. Yes, some do because of poverty. But if you want to live in a clean way, you won't accept any bribe no matter what your state financially is. It shows how corrupt there minds are.

It's sad that in our country, a lot of officials become active during or few months before Christmas. One example is LTO or Land Transportation Office by which the officers will become very active during the season. They will even look for a fault even you didn't do anything. It's sad that many corrupt officials still exists, but sometimes we cannot do anything about it.
