Africa = International money pit
Why, oh, why do Western governments continue to pour money into Africa?
Check this out:
"A report on armed conflict in Africa has shown that the cost to the continent's development over a 15-year period was nearly $300bn (£146bn).
"The research was undertaken by a number of non-governmental organisations, including Oxfam.
"It says the cost of conflict was equal to the amount of money received in aid during the same period."
