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.

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. Securing lives and properties are the primary obligation of the government.

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.
