Africa-Press – South-Sudan. As the economy of the country continues worsening, life in the city becomes more complicated as some groups of people are stuck between folding their hands to wait for things in silver plate and others spending precious hours and wasting effort to drug down what one could have struggled for a half of his life in a single night.
This has made some people bum around during the day and make money through psychologically torturing others. This is to say a certain group of people who own weapons and aid tools go around depriving people of their belongings by taking using violence or weird hours to get them instead of working hard to own the same stuff in a rightful manner.
Take for examples therecent night robbery at Jebel market by a well-organized suspected criminalswho broke in to seven shops on over the weekend and made away with assets andunconfirmed amount of money worth millions of South Sudanese pounds, thetraders work tirelessly every day and the price they receive is what they didnot deserve.
Now, imagine at thiscritical time of crisis, where would such a person start from? It might forcethem into the corner of helplessness, depression, anger and fear which may alsocause sleeplessness to the victims.
Stealing and nightrobbery are not new to make people of this city surprised but the question isabout the security in and around that location. We have heard about Toronto, agroup of young boys and maybe not joined by grown men skilled in magnifying andgrabbing people’s properties on the high way and they have gone far to knightinglooting at gunpoint so where the police was and what could they be doing about it.
It is so sad for the anystruggling person to get robbed of their properties when they are trying toprovide goods and services to the civil population.
There should be maximumsecurity deployed to patrol the streets and markets such that these kinds ofthieves may not continue looting and some people may stop blaming economichardship because the hardship has got nothing to do with robbery.
It just depends on one’sugly attitude towards work because it cannot be convincing to wake up in thenight to rob or steal instead of doing something positive to earn a living fromduring the day.
