Foreign Aid Turning into AIDS!

Ever since independence, we have been dependent on foreign aid. This dependence has increased with every year passing in stead of we becoming self sufficient. Dependence on foreign aid, on one hand, has subjugated us to the countries who give us the aid, and, on the other hand, it has been counter productive factor for self reliance. It has corrupted our already corrupt leadership and the rich. The poor are becoming poorer. In other words, foreign aid has become AIDS for us the addiction to which is taking us down the ladder in stead of moving upwards in terms of development.
