Security Agenda for Africa

Security Agenda for Africa (SAFA) is a non-Governmental, not for profit organization (NGO) registered with the Nigerian Corporate affair commission (CAC), and IT/cert.No.16,204. It advances the social, human and physical security agenda for Africa in a holistic, workable and enduring manner. SAFA was born in response to urgent need for more heads and hands to come together and articulate a security and development agenda for Africa and indeed all part of the underdeveloped world. Knowing that development does not strive in absence of security, and particularly that the aspiration of African continent to savor from the pot of development will remain a mirage, until the age long security challenge is given serious attention and tackled. By security, we go beyond policing kind of security, to include justice, democracy, social security, food, employment, government policies, culture, and so on. We believe that when proper attention is paid to these lots, the structural and Show more physical violence, so common in Africa and the major reason for the slow pace of development will be addressed.
