Ken Opalo, an associate professor at Georgetown University, argues that Western aid has created more problems for Africa than it has solved. On the other side, Ndidi Nwuneli, president of The ONE Campaign, emphasizes the critical role of aid in fostering economic opportunities and healthier lives. They debate the consequences of recent U.S. aid cuts, explore the need for African nations to gain self-reliance, and discuss the shift from aid dependency to more equitable partnerships. The conversation dives deep into how these changes could reshape Africa's future.
