No country or region receiving US "aid" will prosper. "Aid" money usually goes to military and other crowd-control measures to ensure the safety of foreign parasites on African soil. .....Africa needs to kick America out!
@Amir Dread Africa also need to help itself and better oversee all your corrupt leaders who have stolen the aid money you so disdain.

Please do not speak crap just because you can!You of all people know well who is corrupting African leaders.
History is full of patriotic,uncorruptible leaders who were pushed aside to make way for the puppets who will tow their lines and get massive kickbacks.Diddn't u try to force the Raila Odingas,the Tsvangirais,the Morsis, Outarras, Zumas, Djotodias and many more down our throats?To what end?
When the Thatcher boy masterminded the failed Malabo coup, who did he plan to insert as a president,a nationalist who would guard the nation's oil with jealousy?No, a corrupt puppet who would dance to the puppeteer's tune,only to be swept aside when trying to be clever!
Yes,America mist leave us alone.We know their 'aid' is no simple charity!Neo-imperialists!
