         The African continent has made great strides in reducing civil War or the number of violent conflicts . Simultaneously, however, the nature of security threats has substantially changed. This requires new regional and international responses to strengthening the security of African citizens
          The new threat to African stability, is safety and security. of its citizens and people visiting or wanting to working there. most people don't feel safe at home, intercity travel or going out late evening, and always scared of their their family. its has not only reduce the number of foreigner visiting Africa, even by its citizen base abroad but also hindered a lot of investment opportunities in the African continent
          The african Government most look inward, the root course of lack of security is poverty, unequal income distributionin the society. and neglect by the goverment. It is a vicious cicle of criminality in africa. Most politician are enriching themselves, while people are working for peasant salary and national wealth is not properly distributed. the poor, start comitting crime to afford a a better life. other see how he got rich over night, he too start comming crime. as justifation of their action
