Are honest individuals seen as existential-threats by the greedy elites who dominate Ghana?

Dear critical-reader, are principled and honest individuals seen by the powerful and ruthless greed-filled elites who dominate Ghana's Machiavellian system, as existential-threats to be silenced and eliminated if  possible?

Truth be told, in our kafkaesque society, in which apparently respectable professionals (judged by their deeds, not their words), are in reality, super wealthy villains, whose enormous wealth is bedrocked on the egregious crimes of self-dealing and profiting unlawfully, as fiduciaries, from valuable  insider-information, honest individuals are seen as intolerable risks to eliminate.

That is why all honest individuals are regarded throughout our system, as barriers posing an intolerable existential-risk, to the wealth creation ambitions of Ghanaian society's outwardly respectable super wealthy criminals, who endanger their solid-gold-goals, of sending their net worth to stratospheric heights at society's expense, and thus have to be neutralised and eliminated from our capricious system, at all costs.

All the trials and tribulations of Issa Ouedraogo, the principled and honest orphan-made-good founder, of the unique profit-sharing agrisector organic social impact business, B-BOVID, since his return to Ghana (after a long sojourn abroad, who chose, upon his return home, to establish a social impact business as a way of giving back to society, for his good fortune in life, from savings regularly put aside, from his six-figure salaries earned working overseas), have stemmed mostly from his refusal to compromise his integrity, by joining the luxuriously appointed corruption-gravy-train, which is wrecking the enterprise Ghana (from metaphorical derailment upon derailment, in the grifter-networks run by insider-dealing and self-dealing respectable looking lawyers, bankers, sundry consultants, accountants, etc., etc), jam-packed with big-thieves-in-high-places, who see Ghana as their private asset to be exploited for their sole benefit.

It is in that light, and within the context of which, one has to view, the incredible frying-pan-to-fire story, of the trails and tribulations suffered by Issa Ouedraogo, as he fought bravely over the years, to ensure that not only would his social impact business, B-BOVID, survive, but that it would also thrive and show Ghana, and the rest of Black Africa, how food security and shared-prosperity across rural Ghana, could be secured, through building value chains whose smallholder farmer stakeholders, could be empowered to self-bootstrap their way out of poverty, to financial independence, by diversifying their income streams using climate smart agroforestry principles. It's a shabby and unsavoury tale, sadly,  dear critical-reader.

The long list of opaque corporates, and morally bankrupt C-Suit professionals, who took advantage of Issa Ouedraogo, in the most ruthless of fashions, in their quest to sideline him and shorn themselves off him, reads like a who is who, of Ghana's private sector's financial services sector. It is proof positive that honest and principled individuals, are seen as existential-threats, by the greedy and hard-of-hearing elites that dominate the enterprise Ghana and are robbing it blind.
