Happy weekend dear hivers and community 🥰💕.
Can we ever trace violence to its origin just like other few things we can say has its starting point from a stated date and time? And this very act of disorder has continued to wax harder, eaten up the society through many souls that might even not know how to help themselves.
Its so baffling that violence has increased more in recent times and will keep increasing due to how the world 🌎 is not paying attention to this disorder in man and the reason being that some of the movies 🎥 we watch which is supposed to be an act of entertainment in arts has taken roots in the heart of humans, influencing them to exhibit all kinds of violence towards others.
Although we can say violence is something that has been there for decades, because our forefathers through their times also experienced violence in many ways, but as times began changing with things happening, the newer era became so attached to all kinds of violence making the rate to multiply which keeps hindering the society at large.
In the olden days community disputes were always settled either by the elders involved or the high chief’s which after few dialogues things will be resolved. And growing up we hard about all kinds of land disputes that was also settled amicably by the Obi’s in charge. These were the days when peace is the order of the day. Even then the states and country in general enjoys peace because those in charge in the peace making processes were always respected. It has never been again since our fathers time
How is that some men keep hitting their wives , turning them into punching bags do to how they feel to be in control as a husband or because they don’t want to be seen as a weak person. The case here is that many who do it must have been influenced by their father or friends who also beats their wives. These group of persons must have also faced violence while growing up, so readily and always want to be in charge to avoid anxiety 😥 and fear 😨.
And many others whom violence has eaten so deeply in their hearts are facing one frustration or the other whereby they carry out violence immediately they have the chance to any person around them. A man nearly killed a conductor some time ago because he could not simply give him the balance he was demanding from him as his charge. When they got to where he was supposed to drop, he quickly held the conductor as the vehicle 🚗 was moving, dragging him to fail. Until everyone in the bus started shouting at the driver to stop 🛑. This act was coming from anger and frustration. Maybe ones from family problems or that of the economy of the country.
Combating violence is something that the government should take so seriously 😐 because this act of disorder increasing daily due to how nobody is being punished for it. The government should set up a body who will be in charge of abusiveness, wife beating, parents maltreating kids, boy friend treating their girl friends and laws against over drinking. This means that if s body is set up to be in charge, people can always call 📞 for emergencies in times of needs. And punishments if taking seriously will make many people think 💭 before they do anything drastically.
Although in the United State of America 🇺🇸, such bodies have been established, but many underdeveloped world 🌍 are still far from doing this.
