Without mincing words, the phenomenon called “lawlessness” is very much prevalent in most developing nations, but less in the developed countries, since there is no crime-free state. Lawlessness in any society, can as well be a precursor to corruption, bribery, and so on, as some people who are arrested by the police would want to bribe their way out to be left off the hook. No society or nation can progress or survive socio-economically and politically in a state of lawlessness which can lead to a state of anarchy, increase in crime and violence cum high level of insecurity. With all of these problems, no right thinking person, investor or foreigner would want to invest nor endanger or risk the lives of his staff and properties in such a country bedeviled with lawlessness. The paper attempts to look into the positive and negative impacts of lawlessness on the society, the causes and possible solutions out of the menace.
