How can I install dpkg and aptitude on Raspbian?

Question

I've downloaded and burn a yocto raspbian image, I found out I've no apt nor dpkg but only pkg-config and wget, how can I install them?
Or at least how could I install dpkg in order to install apt in the aftermath using wget and dpkg?

Raspbian includes dpkg and apt; what you’ve downloaded presumably isn’t Raspbian, but a Raspberry Pi Yocto image. The latter kind of image isn’t designed to be modified, and you shouldn’t try to add dpkg to your image.
Put another way, if you want Raspbian, make sure you download a Raspbian image.
