Do you currently have a tourist visa?

Your success will hinge on your ability to show strong ties to your country.  You can not enter the US via a tourist visa with the intent to adjust status.....Having a mother inside the US is a strong tie to the US..........I think your chances are slim....but good luck.  Please let us know what happens at the interview.

Probably a 99% chance you will be denied. When applying for a tourist visa the CO will assume you have immigrant intent and in order to be issued a tourist visa you must be able to prove you will be returning. The fact you have a pending I-130 will be a big problem. You can't enter the US on a tourist visa with the intention of adjusting status. That is visa fraud

You can call it a visitor or tourist visa its the same thing. The fact that you are openly saying you want to adjust is against the law. I will repeat you may not enter the united states on a tourist or visitor visa with the intention to adjust status. You have very strong ties to the US so that chance of your approval is very low

You cannot enter the US on a visitor visa with the intent to stay in the US and adjust status.....visitor visas are for visiting.

Firstly you must always answer any questions by immigration officers honestly. That means if by the slimmest chance you are issued the visa and you travel to the US you can expect to be scrutinized by the officers at the POE. If they are satisfied you will return home then maybe they will let you in. If they are not then you'll be on the next flight back to Sudan.

No no no no.  Mulitple people have told you know that its ILLEGAL. Im sorry but everyone has to go through this process and people who try and circumvent the system make it more difficult for all immigrants. Go through the process correctly like everyone else does. If you are caught you will be banned from the US.

You answered "yes"  on the ds160 question asking if an immigrant petition was filed on your behalf, right?
