One Kenyan man's mission: free Africa from yoke of aid

With a few radical ideas and a band of scrappy followers armed with hoes and pitchforks, a self-taught economist from Kenya is trying to set Africa free – liberate it from the billions of dollars in aid it receives every year from rich countries. (Christian Science Monitor, Friday)

We certainly hope James Shikwati succeeds in his quest.
