Can't we say the same of many other sectors? Dr Ndemo mentioned hiring practices and I wonder whether this isn't practiced almost across the board, including ICT.</span></div><div><br><span></span></div><div><span>Our roads crumble almost as soon as they are built; and we have been training engineers since independence. Look at collapsing buildings. At least a misspelled word may not mean life and death. <br></span></div><div><br><span></span></div><div><span>I could name many, many others like these. <br></span></div><div><br><span></span></div><div><span>Yet we tolerate it; we still but newspapers with shoddy language; and the companies make money. What's the incentive for them to improve? Why pay costly editing services
when you are making money anyway? <br></span></div><div><br><span></span></div><div><span>And those roads: we still drive along them, mumbling and life goes on; and (indeed) we may even cheer those shoddy workers with loot coming from their short cuts! <span style="font-style: italic;">Kijana wa fulani ametengeneza pesa!</span> </span></div><div><br><span></span></div><div><span>As long as consumers tolerate shoddy work, shoddy work will be the order of the day.
