I am African woman myself from a rural area in my region where the mostly see women biggest goal in life is getting married but through all the hurdles thrown at me I turned it into energy saw my self through schooling without giving in into unnecessary begging, or selling myself out I rather seek knowledge I was always here and there in one function/small scale investment program  or the other right now I own a little school of my own and am into cryptocurrency and it's at least sufficient for me

Now back to the matter for so long the international world has aided Africa and the big questions are will this continue for eternity? And is this making African less self reliant.

Africa is a very much a blessed continent truth be told early civilization started in Africa (Egypt) but the current developed countries took and made good use of there resources and are enjoying the fruit of there labour now.
   Poverty, war, religious beliefs, bad government, low standard of living and the list goes on are plagues that are afflicting the continent. Aids has been made to at least help by the outside world.
  But I would say rather than giving us cake teach us how to bake. It's time Africans stop getting baby sitted  and start getting resourceful. No matter how little get working. It all start with changing ones mind set. Think positive then back it up with hard work and am very positive those giving aid would be very much interested into driving the aid into very good entrepreneur ideas.
