Thanks Emily Wilkinson, Jack Corbett, Avinash Persaud Matthew Bishop (Dr) for insights on a subject that is all too often overlooked.

Today I'm "portraying" UN-memberstate number 174 - represented by Américo d'Oliveira dos Ramos, prime minister of Saõ Tomé & Principe.
Sao Tome became the first country in Africa to adopt multiparty democracy in 1990. It was, later on, followed up by holding its first multiparty elections in 1991 after changing the Constitution. The first multiparty elections were free, fair, transparent, and non-violent.

However, the most threatening animal is the mosquito. (Afrikanza.com)

Today I'm "portraying" UN-memberstate number 175 - represented by Fiame Naomi Mata'afa, primeminister of Samoa. Mataʻafa is Samoa's first female prime minister. She is also the second woman to lead a pacific island country after president of the Marshall Islands, Hilda Heine.
The word tattoo is believed to originate from Samoa. Dating back centuries, the Samoan “tat” is regarded as a right of passage for many samoans.

Today I'm "portraying" UN-memberstate number 178 - represented by
Dickon Amiss Thomas Mitchell, primeminister of Grenada
An important aspect of the Grenadian culture is the tradition of storytelling, with folk tales bearing both African and French influences.
Politics in Grenada has been characterised by instability and corruption, but has improved greatly since the 1990s.
