Terrorism in Africa

[Dunamisx]

Great minds, who do you think is behind the killings in African region?
Should we blame just African leaders or the western block.

Africa could have been alot of tourism attraction centre allover the worlds in welcoming people from different nations, but due to insecurities and the fear associated to this makes it more discouraging for international tourist least choose Africa for them to visit, government in these concerned government should engage more security measures to tackle terrorism because they will always fear the risk of being kidnapped, robbed or threatened to be killed in visited and they fall into the hands of terrorist.

    Terrorism in many parts of Africa as it seems has turned into normality as it doesn't bother African leaders simply because they are riding with bullet proof cars and security aids.
   Negligence of African leaders in eradicating insecurity simply means that, they are either the sponsors of insecurity or their western pay masters are the sponsors.

Aside from Africa leaders riding bullet proof cars,  most of the politicians are the main sponsors of those terrorism groups and just as you said in the last paragraph,  due to their involvement is the scheme they always look away from the activities of those terrorists gourps and systematically place them in such a way that the National security are weak against the terorists and their can't fight them since the machineries to do so are not given to them.

Africa have become a breesing ground for most terrorist groups and it take a lot of efforts from global terrorist police in collaboration with Afriacns security force to be able to face out this manice that is ravaging our society currently because it is now obvious that our African leaders lack that capacity or will to do the right thing in this regard.

I'm thinking that this might be a form of Russian terrorism in Africa. Maybe it will be the poisoned grain from Ukraine that Putin will send to Africa. You know. Poisoned by spraying it with Monsanto pesticides and herbicides.


Putin Offers "Free" Grain To 6 Impoverished African Nations

The gathering of some 17 African heads of state (down from prior years, given US pressure and the Ukraine war) and many more senior officials from countries across the continent, comes just days after Moscow rejected renewal of the UN-backed Black Sea Grain Initiative.

Putin vowed the following in his keynote address to the summit: "In the coming months, we will be ready to provide Burkina Faso, Zimbabwe, Mali, Somalia, the Central African Republic and Eritrea with 25,000-50,000 tonnes of grain free of charge," he said.

As regional reporting recounts, for "over a year, the grain deal allowed around 33 million tons of grain to leave Ukrainian ports, helping to stabilize global food prices and avert shortages."

Government officials are not the only endangered species on kidnapping or armed attackers. Once you have infiltration of guns in the society then every body is at risk. In fact government officials are more secured and protected with their families because they have security personnels guiding them day and night. Therefore, the onions is on the people to ensure that government do the right thing. To secure lives and properties are the primary obligation of the government.

A time is coming that the bush meat will start to be chasing after the hunter, these people the government sponsored to engage in terrorism or neglect to take their matter serious and give them an avenue to make a new change by them first making the first move in bringing back equality and opportunities to the terrorist, once they are done with the innocent citizens, they will then go after the government officials and continue their next level unleashed tasks with them which means no one could obviously be safe when thngs go weird with terrorist because they will always agitates and this are the people you neglect being responsible for their wellbeing.

I agree with you on the impact of gun-running on the deteriorating security situation in Africa,  and how government officials and politicians can protect themselves and their families from this negative impact of the security situations raising from terrorism to kidnapping and security situations that have ravaged the African continent most especially west Africa.

Some of those in the heads of government have their children relocated abroad to avoid them becoming victims of the insecurity they're created for the people and just as you rightly said,  gun running as a result of wars in some African countries like Libya and the rest have aided this insecurity in a far fetching state.

If Africa leaders truly want to fight terrorism they do it with out any difficulties,  terrorism exists in Africa because these are the same people our leaders use to gain their own political ambition.  The leaders have mo choice to tolerate terrorism because the people involved in terrorism have things in common.  Their is no terrorists group that is  stronger than government,  government only allow them to exist.

In Africa I would blame the people living there which do not stand up for their rights although as said here it is impossible to find the real ones to blame for the terrorism which has become normal nowadays.Africa should start by electing better people to manage their funds,I saw a video on Linkedin where some military coup had caught the minister of finances of one African place and told him that he has 48 hours to explain where did the funds go or otherwise would face death execution by the firing squad,he was crying in that video explaining.I hope more corrupted people like him are exposed further as that ends terrorism.

Terrorism in Africa, are cause by the bad leaders in Africa most of them are sponsor by these leaders. Terrorism is bad everywhere, and we must speak against it. The youths must be train and giving equal opportunity. That's the only way to reduce youths restiveness. And illegal carrying of arm in Africa.

[Xinarae*]

Terrorism is in human nature and it is carried out by repels based on they don't like the present government. Some people take advantage of their position in government,due to greed they will setup a team to start terrorising the country,so that it will look as if the citizens are the ones that are against the government.

 From what I see,this terrorist have top government officials that sponsors them and directs them on what to do. Some even go at length to give them informations on how to attack the government. Terrorism is a worldwide problem and not only in Africa.

You're right but I think there are other problems out there, economic and the bigger problem is political the problem, the opposition to the African government thinks that if they continue to carry out terrorist activities, they'll be able to get to the top of the country at some point, but I think that's never going to happen. Not possible because many countries deploy troops to support African governments. Which is included in the UN mission.

African people do not have any power to eminate or put a stop to terrorism, it is only the government that can help to fight terrorism.

Africa is too corrupt that even if they choose a leader that is good bad politicians will do everything they can do to still retain power. The people are tired of bad leaders but the level of corruption in the Africa system it is not easy to change these bad leaders.

The problem is evil government replace bad government and the problem gets worse of than the previous. Take for instance the coup in Niger that just happened where the former government has been seize by the new military government for corruption allegations, that doesn't mean that the new government will keep things clean. They will still go back to feed in same plate that they have accused the previous government on. The African situation is such an unfortunate one that it needs some thing drastic and a wave to blow across all the government for a fresh air to come.

It can only be sponsored by bad leader because if you check the equipments this men are using to operate it can only be gotten through the government, most time the main reason for terrorism in our society is because of bad governance,  when their is no employment for youths all what they think about is to create crime that will disturb the the government and the people living in the country. In a country where government is able to create job, solve inflation problems for price of things not to high it is impossible for terrorism to exist,  and when government are doing their jobs in the society they do not tolerate crime and terrorism.

One form of terrorism happens when the government takes the guns away from the people.

Most of the boko haram terrorists were once political machinery of politicians who bought guns and bullets for them to use for intimidating political opponents and as being used to carry out their evil act of elections ringing through bemused of force and intimidation to electoral officials.

And when those politicians finally win the election and get to office,  is either they forget those thugs and left the guns for them and to fund their illegal activities start to use those guns bought by the politicians to commit other crimes such as armed robbery,  kidnapping and terrorisms,  so the leaders who are the corrupt politicians are the root cause of most of the insecurities in the African continent.

What typically occurs is that the opposition, rather than cooperating with the winning party to advance the interests of the nation after the politicians who employed the thugs win their elections and likely desert them, will be using those thugs to attack that administration through acts of terrorism, banditry, and kidnapping, which is wrong.

Politicians, especially those from Africa, can do anything to win an election, but once they do, they ignore some of the people who helped them win and concentrate on their own selfish goals, which often involve getting back the money they spent before considering employment.

I overly understand with you on the point that those hired political thugs to ring a bad leader into power are abandoned after the election and left with the arms and ammunition bought for them by the politician during the election and these instruments will be used afterwards to hunt and commit crimes.

I think what courses insecurity most in Africa is politics because every act of terrorism is aided by the government's ability or inability,  this is what has likely led to so many kids in society today,  and that makes me to agree with the words of a political scholar who states that,  if terrorism rain beyond 24 hours in a country it means the government have hands in,  what it means by government os the politicians and their machinery and how there have invested a lot in arms for their thugs and after the election that arm get into the street and become an instrument for more harm in the society.

If we are expecting opposition political party to support the party who was able to rig themselves into government is going to be a waste of time. As far as politics is concern, election is win and win all. I don't think collaboration government work or coalition, it doesn't really work in governance because the other party has a different idea or idealogy they were coming with and so such fusion may further take the country back. Political party by primary understanding is formed to win election and form a government and that happens at agreed duration of tenure.

No one knows for sure what causes the many killings that have recently been rife in countries in parts of Africa. Because all of these motives could have something to do with the world of politics, religion, or about personal affairs. Because even from the past few years, what I know countries in parts of Africa, there have been a lot of murders. So if you mention that it was caused by political affairs, surely all of that would not have lasted so long until now. Even
In the past few weeks, there has been another murder in Mali, which resulted in dozens of deaths and this was rumored to be the result of the actions of a terrorist.

But that I read on a website.

From the maps analyzed by SAPS, 51.5% of the murders were committed during an altercation or misunderstanding. Twenty percent were committed during another crime such as aggravated robbery. Vigilantism accounts for 10%, retaliation or revenge 3%, gang violence 2% and other group or mass conflicts such as taxi violence 1%.

Source: https://issafrica.org/iss-today/what-do-we-know-about-murder-in-south-africa

So it means that in countries in that part of Africa, the residents there often have a dispute, and the people there seem to be easily irritated, which results in frequent killings. Means that basically citizens in African countries, it's very easy to kill each other. Which means it will be very easy to be ordered or paid by other people to commit a murder. Perhaps because of that, there is a lot of terrorism in African countries.

Not only in Africa but also in the global issue. Bad political leaders ultimately sponsor terrorism. They use terrorists for their favor, and when their job is done, they do an eye-washing fight against terrorists. But terrorism has mostly grown in 3rd world countries. The main reason for terrorism is insufficient job sectors. Young graduated peoples are jobless. They are unable to get a job. In the meantime, they need money to live.

In this situation, most young people have no choice rather than joining terrorism to make money and live their life. I have seen a video interview of a terrorist where he said most of his team members are doing it because they don't have a job to do.
