As a country, we have a crisis on our hands and unfortunately, we continue to ignore it, we keep addressing threats with violence of which we maybe creating a cycle that may continue into the next generation. policies that address the needs of the next perpetrators of violence should be formulated so as to ensure reintegration back into the society. Children are being exposed to violence everyday thus desensitizing them to violence and we need to protect them because we are responsible for whatever happens.
