As the residence say, the caves presented a rich culture of the people they highly valued. Rio Tinto, the mining company responsible for the blast, legally reached out for iron ore worth 135 million dollars that could not have been available under alternative mining plans that would avoid the cultural site. The act spiked condemnation from the shareholders and the public (“Mining firm Rio” 2020). This caused the suspension of the CEO, Mr. Jacques, and other senior executives. The chairman of Rio Tinto acknowledges that no individual was responsible for the destruction of the shelters, but there were various opportunities missed, and the company failed to uphold its core values, among them being to ‘respect local communities and their heritage.’ Among the major issues presented in this case, one is that the company fails to uphold its core values.

After the reconstruction period, many African Americans were granted the right to vote, and they were included in the congress through the appointment of their representative. Despite the people being granted the right to vote, it is surprising how the right was negatively stipulated in the constitution. The right to vote was spelled out that “the rights of the citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state, on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude (Lec 1). The voting right was granted to the15th Amendment.

A country can choose to employ the necessary economic and governance policies in the exploitation of its resource wealth for sustainable growth and development and to improve the livelihood of the people like in the case of Botswana. Even though Botswana is not fully established, it is in the right trajectory to ensure sustainable economic diversification and to improve stakeholder engagement, transparency and accountability through effective governance. Nigerian case, on the other hand, has demonstrated how poor politics and bad leadership can stagnate economic growth even with the existence of resource wealth within a country. The lack of proper policies of governance and economics has increased the gap between the poor, leading to poor living standard for many Nigerians. The country lacks proper economic diversification and is mainly dependent on oil as its source of income.
