Stories about Africa is always such with the so-called permanent stain of poverty, though rich in everything you can think of in the world, but poverty remains a major problem in Africa and has continued from generation to generation. Some people have argued, however, about what the true definition of poverty is. SOS village the United Kingdom refer to Africa as the poorest continent on earth "Africa is considered the poorest continent on earth. Almost every second person living in the states of sub-Saharan Africa lives below the poverty line".
The world bak regards you as being poor if you live on less than 1.25 US dollars a day to life, it doesn't matter if you have no need of even buying anything with money. Apart from just poverty, there's extreme poverty and that is even worst. Extreme poverty in Africa is caused by many factors, according to the SOS UK, these factors include:
War and crisis, Population growth, climate condition, diseases, Unjust Global trade structures.
The only approach to ending poverty in Africa in our opinion should be generational, meaning that we begin to groom a generation that will understand and well equipped on how to create or generate wealth, there are enormous opportunities and resources in Africa and it is about time we change the stories of Africa from a continent ridden with poverty to a continent where her people flourish and prosper.
