"I have with this picture, created so many jobs and have made huge profits for Western and European aid organisations. These very organisations deny that I died of hunger because my parents were forced to grow coffee for export. The West deny because admitting the problem would mean putting an end to their AID CIRCUS. And while these rich people continue to enrich themselves from my picture, my blood cries out from the grave. When does it STOP?"

My parents have already paid you the debt; through my African government. We are forced to export our food - so that I won´t eat. Our cotton too, so that mom won´t make me a dress. Worse... we are forced to grow tobacco and coffee instead of corn. You even continue to rob me through this picture by creating a false alarm for your aid organisations. Please keep your help!

Please help stop FOREIGN HELP. It multiplies hunger. Foreign aid robs the poor their rights to speak up. Foreign aid is a trap. The more it is advertised, the more the poor are forced to grow tobacco and coffee. Foreign aid helps increase the pressure on African leaders, to grow cash crops for exports. (Which African leaders believe is development). Only to pay off the "debt".

Do I understand anything when it comes to Africa´s poverty problems?

You call me poor and humiliate me through your aid organisations. You force me to give you back 7 dollars for the 1 dollar you pretend to have given me. Are you so blind to realise that you are robbing me to make me poor?

Our leaders say this is democracy. The American dream. They have taken our land and our rights away, and have given them to foreign investors. The same investors create aid companies out of our misery by asking for help from their friends abroad - and where they come from. Blocking any development. Especially when we want to sustain ourselves. We want to develop ourselves. Please stop your "aid".

Out here in Africa, investors sell our timber to South African, European and American companies. When trees are cut or uprooted noone thinks of replacing them. It is us, the local, that suffer the consequences. And yet it has been our (the local tradition) to replace trees and plants in order to preserve our nature. Because of this problem, drought is becoming a problem in our countries.
