Social Security is Cure to Terrorism and Killings in Africa

 As Coup and kidnappings and terrorisms persist in different countries in Africa, it’s pertinent to note that the underlying cause of this are the general discontent of the population on their economic circumstances. 


Many attribute the killings to organise criminal activities or even religious beliefs or political differences or ambitions. However, a careful and discerning look shows that the crimes and terrorism persists because there are unemployed and jobless people who are needed to execute the tasks at the local level.


As the world seek to eradicate this we should be very tactful and take the most pragmatic approach in providing social security benefits, if the unemployed in different countries in Africa are given monthly allowance and benefits as it’s done in Europe and America, the numbers of people willing to kill or commit crimes will drastically reduce.


As citizens access monthly benefits and payments, from the government, they will spend more and industries will thrive and grow due to increase demands, local productivity will grow through many developing their own ventures, import will increase as more luxury is needed, more warehouses will be developed and even factories and hence more people, the industries earn more profits due to increased demands, pay more taxes and thus Governments earn more revenue. 


Let’s love, let’s be humane, let’s be pragmatic
