I think that's been a problem with a lot of Country leaders.
They are in it for the power, not to serve the people..

In a book many years ago, when referring to someone running for
Prime Minister or President, etc. Arther C. Clarke stated:

Anyone who deliberately aims at the job should be disqualified.

He suggested that the People should choose who they think would
be best at it and then talk them into taking the job..

Granted that's a little tricky when you have populations in
the millions. But Clarke was pretty clever. Long before wireless
communication was much more than a dream he came up with the
idea of a ring of Geostationary satellites orbiting the earth
for communication in a paper he wrote for Wireless World in 1945.
They actually refer to our band of satellites as the Clarke Belt
to give him credit for the idea..
