Abstract
The United Nations High Commission for Refugees asserts that refugees are the ultimate symptom of social disintegration. They constitute the last, most obvious link in a chain of causes and effects that define the extent of a country’s social and political breakdown. As the crises affected the whole of Africa with huge amount of money and resources wasted, efforts are requiresd to ensure a permanent end to them. This study is a survey of the existing literature, government as well as international institutions’ documents, for facts on the subject. The analysis is descriptive. The study provides more elucidating and complimentary information about the efforts of the United Nations on the situation in Africa and recommends collaborative efforts with the United Nations in containing the scourge of refugee in Africa.
