For God’s Sake, Please Stop the African Aid!
Aid to Africa? How about encouraging African countries to be more self-sufficient and encouraging their women to have no more than two children and zero children if they lack the means to raise them?
Just throwing wads of cash and food bags around never ultimately helped anyone but it does make you and them feel better and then… Oops! there comes another hungry kid so here comes another wad of money and a bag of rice.
Are human beings just stomachs with uncontrollable sexual urges? Without a higher plan of humanity, this is exactly how aid givers perceive the African people.
Money or food given without a higher plan than basic human needs is ripe for disaster. It has recently come to light that Nigerian leaders since 1960 stole or misused an estimated £220 billion, "as much as all the western aid given to Africa in almost four decades." (africanexecutive.com)
"For God's Sake, Please Stop the Aid!" says Kenyan economics expert James Shikwati.
Huge bureaucracies are financed (with the aid money), corruption and complacency are promoted, Africans are taught to be beggars and not to be independent. In addition, development aid weakens the local markets everywhere and dampens the spirit of entrepreneurship that we so desperately need. (projectrwanda.org)
