Question Question You should spend about 40 minutes on this task. Write about the following topic: Rich countries often give money to poorer countries, but it does not solve poverty. Therefore, developed countries should give other types of help to the poor countries rather than financial aid. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience. You should write at least 250 words.

Nigeria is a typical example where the government is corrupt and loans have been collected from international institutions like the world bank and from nature powers like China without proper accountability and poor state structure, embezzlement of these funds is driven without any repercussion and
