  6. weak infrastructures:

    • Destruction of infrastructure: war and insecurity have caused the destruction of basic infrastructure such as roads, bridges, and buildings.
    • Lack of investment: The lack of sufficient investment in various infrastructure sectors has caused the country’s underdevelopment.
