dc.description.abstract	Violence is a phenomenon that occurs everywhere. It has severe consequences on the growth and development of any country. Gang syndicates in different urban and rural areas across the world are the major suppliers of violence in the world. The rate of growth of gang memberships across the rural and urban regions of the world is a challenge that all governments must proffer solutions to. In a democratic regime, the rate of growth of violence reduces the chances of good governance and democratic sustenance. This means that the more there is violence, the lesser democratic development and sustenance. The theoretical framework of tyre burning is used to explain the phenomenon of violence processes. This usually begins with a peaceful protest that degenerates into violence. The paper concludes on the premise that engaging the youths in productive activities will reduce gang membership and urban violence.	en_US
