Corporate social investments are the concrete result of the principle of corporate social responsibility which has become a catch phrase for companies of recent, both national and multinational. From telecommunication companies through the petroleum sector, banks and micro- financial institutions, to food processing companies, no one is left out. What is corporate social responsibility and who does what in this guise? How do or can councils benefit from corporate social responsibility? In the following paper, we attempt an answer. An information technology centre here, book donations there, a well to a community here, bridges built in a neighbourhood there, community assembly, worship and sports grounds, all bearing the conspicuous stamp of a given corporation and done with the most intense publicity, and these to the greatest satisfaction of a mayor here or there, since these corporations’ social investments fall in line with the council’s mission. According to some authors, corpor

People come and go, and the system remains! I normally should not mind other people's business, however, we are forced to share labensraum and I have no choice, being like the proverbial real mother of Solomon's judgement, I must pray that if our child be stolen, it should at least be well cared for by the thief. Iya Mohammed is securely locked away beneath the rusted iron gates of Kondengui. Samuel Etoo alias l'enfant terrible is thousands of light years away from the food  house. Iya has been replaced by Tombi who promised heaven and earth. Adoum has been replaced by an old bowing champion and professional sycophant (a cow has no problem bowing to a greater cow). Blaise Moussa of high pedigree, trained in European and modern management, with stubborn Tombi are now in charge. But we still see the same old results. Jesus's ancient wisdom still withstands modern scientific examination: no new wine in old skins. The skin is the problem. The software, the algorithms,

But nurses and doctors save lives, Teachers, preachers and lawyers save souls, All hail to these unsong heroes. And shame to the fence-sitters,  And those who wear a mask to criticise, Accomplices cannot tell the wrongdoer their wrong to his face, If you cannot risk your sinecure and vested interests to better the lot of all Then be ready to partake in your master's fall. And courage to all those in Ba
