For those living in Africa, crime is an unrelenting reality that significantly impacts life through the constant threat of violence. Despite the promises of politicians, criminals are exploiting ineffective governance in many African countries to target the weak and vulnerable. Against the hope of the victims and the longings of Christians who understand God’s standards of righteousness and justice, Africa seems to be plunging into greater depths of criminality.

According to the 2023 Global Organised Crime Index, criminality is on the rise in Africa with the Democratic Republic of Congo, Nigeria, and South Africa leading not only the continent but also breaking into the top ten worldwide.
