Per the
definition, a government is the body, entity,
invested with the power to manage a political unit, organization or more often,
a State. The word
governance comes from the Greek word "kubernaein" and the Latin verb
"gubernare" which means "to steer". Therefore, according to
this definition, government’s responsibility is to steer, drive, lead, guide,
manage, and run. The duty of a government is therefore managing certain tasks
related to a specific society.
