Is Truth Bitter Or Sweet

Truth is not bitter, 
it is how some folks perceive it.
some people can call it bitter 
When it is beating them categorically
But the Truth is always sweet. 
Niger national defence force wished to close the doors
of corruption in their country 
as some politicians could mismanage some resources. 
Then they succeeded to change the regime
via coup d'etat seven days back.
Majority people of Niger support the military 
transition regime as they suffered so much. 
The finance minister  was given forty 
eight hours by the new president 
to write a financial report and present it live
to the entire Niger nation
via national television. 
The finance minister was so confused as 
he did not know  how to do such financial report 
due to corruption and militaries  traced all the frauds 
of national funds for some years.
He started crying on national television of Niger. 
The finance minister  was so guilty ...
continued crying like a baby.
could this finance minister welcome the truth one day? 
some people continue to make the truth their enemy
because of some evil deals which they do secretly. 
there are many reasons for some Africans 
to lose trust in some politicians 
as they were made millionaires 
by the protection of some superpowers
countries and continue being their puppets
publicly or secretly 
as they care more for money 
than their nations. 

When a robber is protected by the big secret robbers,
it is so difficult to avoid their manipulations.
