You are correct that social and political climates can affect government preparedness to earthquakes. Several factors that can affect this impact these nations especially hard. 

Corruption makes governments less effective in enforcing quake-resistant building codes, building early warning systems, and other factors.

Corruption rating on the "Corruption Perceptions Index" (higher is better):
 - Morocco: 38/100
 - Algeria: 33/100
 - Ethiopia: 38/100

GDP per capita means that citizens cannot afford to build quake-resistant buildings, and makes for a smaller tax base which impairs government budgeting for such things as education and warning systems.

GDP per capita (higher is better):
 - Morocco: $3896
 - Algeria: $4151
 - Ethiopia: $1098

In light of these factors, one solution is for citizen education and aid through Non-Governmental Organizations. Educating local leaders in the most sensitive earthquake-prone locations, who could then educate the citizens around them, could be one way to implement some of the above factors such as conducting regular drills and exercises in spite of governmental and economic conditions.
