dc.description.abstractThe international community saw the need for unity, peace, cooperation, and a state of security. This task was given the UNSC. But due to its inability to handle the plethora of breach of peace situations the world is experiencing creates a lot of doubts as to the seriousness of this body to carry on the task assigned her. Some of the question this research intends to answer is to see how committed the Security Council members are in maintaining and promoting world peace and security. With their over looming interest will the world experience a better peace and security situation than before? The objectives of this research is to examine the effectiveness of the UNSC in its principal role of maintaining peace and security given the high level of breach of peace situations the world is experiencing. The methodology used in this work is the doctrinal method. Some of the findings arrived at in this research is the lack of means sufficient enough to carry out its functions. The veto power of the permanent five members of the Security Council is a hindrance to this body`s function. To proffer some solutions, rebel and terrorist group`s funds should not only be frozen after they are discovered. They should be sent to the coffers of the UN to help resolve security issues in the areas that are unstable or that they breached the peace. The General Assembly‘s most important attempt so far to prevent the paralysis of the United Nations in measures of collective security was the Uniting for Peace Resolution of 3rd November, 1950. This resolution attempted to counter the hindrance of the Security Council caused by the excessive use of the veto and the negligence of previous recommendations by the General Assemblyen_US
