Monique Maddy founder of Adesemi Communications and author of 'Learning to Love Africa' pointed out the lack of understanding the Aid Industry had (and still has) for wealth creation and entrepreneurship.In explaining the unsuccess of her then company she stated:
the real reason for Adesemi's failure and Africa's continental mire can be traced to the international development agencies that are designed to help the region. "Africa is worse off today -- in many countries -- than it was at independence, even though billions and billions have been spent," says Maddy, who herself served for five years as a United Nations Development Program officer. "As long as you have these kinds of institutions, you won't have any change."
...she called
for a radical departure from a system based on an international aid bureaucracy. "You basically have bureaucrats trying to develop countries," she says. "How many bureaucrats started Microsoft?"via GhanaWeb
