I am the mother of all nations but yet I am the poorest of them all, can you guess who I am? Can you guess why I am poor? Who is responsible for my struggles? I am the richest land so how can a country like me endure so much pain? Is it to late to change things around? Can you guess who I am? I am Africa. For today 's topic I will talk about Africa but I will talk about Sub-Saharan and its current struggles.
