WHY ARE AFRICAN COUNTRIES SO POOR

African countries are so poor for a variety of


reasons which are;
. They have a lot of natural resources but they
don’t have the means or machinery to
produce goods
. Most government are corrupted and instead
of using money for the needs of the country
they keep the money for their own personal
needs.
. .Some African countries keep spending their
money on reparation from droughts, war,
floods and other natural resources which
leaves them somewhat bankrupt
.In some African countries their economy is
based on agriculture so in case of natural
disasters they don’t have much economy for
the upkeep of the country.
. In some African countries don’t have a clean
source of water so the country spends their
time treating diseases and building loads of
hospitals that have good treatment and when
a whole population is sick it’s quite costly to
pay for hospitals, better medication, and
other medical attention
. When immigrants come into a country with
a struggling economy there is so much
population which the country can’t take care
of leaving the country’s economy to
completely collapse.
