A great example of the self-inflicted wounds damaging African countries. A World Bank report estimates that corruption in Kenya adds nearly $3 billion, or the equivalent of 2% GDP, to Kenya's fiscal deficit every single year.
"Kenya's economy could be more than 20 times larger by 2035 if it introduced the sort of anti-corruption reforms seen in countries like Ghana and Senegal, and add 7.7 million more and better jobs."

The World Bank says electricity costs for businesses in Kenya are almost 50% higher than in Uganda and more than 124% higher than in Viet Nam, two of its peer countries.
The report says opaque power purchase agreements (PPAs) and weak procurement practices have contributed to high electricity costs.

Cristiano Ronaldo finished second to Messi even in retirement – the ending to his Portugal career is sad and predictable

The specific claim is accurate: Ronaldo never won the official Player of the Tournament award in a senior World Cup, Euro or Nations League Finals.
Calling him a failure is nonsense. He retires as all-time international top scorer (146 goals), most capped player, Euro 2016 winner, two-time Nations League champion, first man to score in six World Cups, five-time Ballon d'Or winner and Portugal's greatest ever.
