There has been an ageing desire for African states to unify themselves to push for a unified economy. Africa is blessed with an abundance of natural resources but Western nations seem to be major beneficiaries.

The influx of citizens from a crime-ridden country into another relatively crime-safe country will be intentional access given to crime spread. Many African states lack proper means of identification, how can crime be controlled in this situation?
