The article is a about a Zambian president Mr Chiluba who was accused of embezzling $500,000( from the public funds by the people,that was meant to be used to build schools,hospitals and facilitate the public places and He also spent out of the public fund trying to prove his innocence against all the prosecution.
This article relates to the theme of the pearl because the Zambian was greedy and cared only about himself and does not care about what he does and the decisions he makes,how they affects others around him. This was what happened to Kino too,before he found the pearl ha cared about his son,wife and others around him, but after finding the pearl he forgets about others and cares only about himself. His intention was to find a pearl that he was going to use to pay the doctor but after finding it,his intention changed completely to wanting the pearl to make him rich. The intention of the President was to serve his country wholeheartedly but when he sees that the country gains a lot of money,he changes his mind to wanting the whole money to himself. That is how i think the article relates to the theme of the pearl.
