One can endure bad governance, unemployment and inflation but when it comes to hunger one can engage in diverse criminal act just to survive. Out of the numerous factors that can push people into criminal acts hunger has the highest reasons. Everyone wants to survive in a society where hunger persist and it is either done by a trick or by crook or by a legal way.
Poor governance, unemployment, and inflation are all factors that contribute to the emergence of hunger. They all lead to hunger, which in turn leads to insecurity in the country. A country that lacks control over the factors that cause hunger will eventually produce criminals, and criminal activity will persist in the country. One of the most viable ways to stop all of this is to address the former before they escalate; escalation is extremely dangerous, and this is an example of what we see in countries where there are too many criminal cases.
